CDN’s Add-On DDoS Protection Falls Short for Major Financial Institution
This global financial institution, operating data centers worldwide and serving millions of organizations, faced persistent misconceptions about effective DDoS protection. Many large enterprises assume cloud‑only defenses from MSSPs or CDNs offer complete protection, but modern attacks are sophisticated, automated, and persistent. Attackers use diverse probing techniques to bypass cloud layers and exploit weaknesses in hybrid environments. As a result, relying solely on cloud defenses leaves critical infrastructure exposed, highlighting the need for a multi‑layered DDoS strategy that protects both on‑premises and cloud‑based assets.
