DDoS Simulation Testing

Verify your mitigation capabilities with the most realistic,
hacker-like DDoS attacks in a controlled environment.

DDoS Attack Simulation

Our testing service simulates deep multi-vector DDoS attacks:

Volumetric attacks. Generating multi-gigabit attack traffic from multiple global locations, we test your ability to withstand extreme and sustained attacks with massive traffic, such as requests from a botnet.
Protocol (network-layer) attacks. By generating protocol attacks such as SYN floods, UDP floods, and others, we evaluate how your network equipment (like routers, firewalls, and load balancers) can withstand attempts to over-consume resources.
Application-layer attacks. We overwhelm your web server tier with excessive HTTP/S GET or POST requests that test your resistance to the more difficult-to-detect, layer 7 attacks, which target an edge server that executes a web application.

A Structured, Controlled Process

Using a “white-box” test methodology, we analyze your entire network architecture and decide on the most relevant attack vectors to test.

Planning Session

Understand your network architecture
Define clear goals, attack vectors

Controlled Attack

Execute tests with 6-12 attack vectors
Cover all attack categories (volumetric, application-layer, low-and-slow)

Recommendations

Following the DDoS Test, you receive a detailed report containing a full gap analysis outlining the main weaknesses, their severity, and how they should be fixed. Here’s a test report example.

Simulator Platform

Our extensible testing platform executes DDoS attacks from bots distributed around the world. It sends real traffic using Web, DNS, and network attack vectors.
