Master Service Availability Under Attack

DDoS Attack Simulation

Practice DDoS incident response with comprehensive tabletop exercises. Train teams on attack detection, traffic analysis, mitigation coordination, and service restoration. Build expertise in maintaining availability during distributed denial of service attacks.

When Availability is Your Business

DDoS attacks cause an average of $120K per hour in revenue loss, with attacks growing in sophistication and scale. Modern DDoS attacks exceed 1 Tbps, overwhelming even enterprise infrastructure. Response time is critical—every minute of downtime impacts customers, revenue, and reputation.
