The rapid expansion of 5G has led to a diverse threat surface threatening the availability and sustainability of desired low latency outcomes (virtual reality, IoT, 3D video, etc.). One of the newer threats is the attack from rogue IoT and UE (mobile phones, iPads and other 5G attached devices) devices. The resulting increase in bandwidth consumption and diverse flows increased the overall threat surface at the access layer which can potentially expose the entire network to a much larger DDoS attack.
With the new Cisco Secure DDoS Edge Protection solution, service providers will now have an efficient DDoS detection and mitigation solution that can thwart the attacks right at the access layer. The solution focuses on 5G deployments, providing an efficient attack detection & mitigation solution for GTP traffic. This will help in preventing malicious traffic from penetrating deeper into the service provider’s network.
(2:59) What are DDoS attacks, and how the solutions evolved?
(8:38) Why is Cisco coming out with edge solutions? What was the need in the market?
(10:11) Isn’t this a risk regardless of having the word edge in the middle of the product or not? How do you fight against this with the edge and without it?
(12:38) Can you provide an example of why IoT devices are vulnerable?
(15:57) Are existing solution obsolete? Are the Edge and other solutions mutually exclusive?
(17:33) How is Cisco solving this problem with Cisco Secure Edge DDoS?
(19:12) Can we run this solution on different platforms?
(23:50) Configuring an ASL
(26:49) Where is the controller located?
(31:25) Can enterprises benefit from this?
(37:49) How can you learn more about this?
(39:50) Can I try this in Cisco Modeling Labs?
