Solving the Impacts of Carpet-Bombing Attacks With Arbor Adaptive DDoS Protection
Carpet bombing DDoS attacks spread malicious traffic across many IP addresses instead of a single target, making them harder to detect and mitigate. With attacks peaking at over a thousand per day in late 2023, organizations need clearer visibility into affected subnets. NETSCOUT’s solution provides managed object alerts to quickly identify carpet bombing activity across all subnets and pinpoint the specific IP ranges being targeted. Precise protection prefixes then allow smaller, high‑risk ranges to be redirected for mitigation, improving detection accuracy and response effectiveness.
