Host TCP Traffic
Layer 4 · Transport
Description
A DDoS attack targeting TCP services by exhausting resources with massive connection attempts.
Mitigation Capabilities
- Anycast: Yes, disperses TCP traffic across nodes.
- NGINX Proxy: Partially, can manage TCP traffic but not ideal for large floods.
- HAProxy: Yes, effective for managing large-scale TCP traffic.
- IDS Suricata: Yes, detects abnormal TCP traffic patterns.
- WAF: No, not applicable for TCP-level traffic.
- OWASP Rules: No, unrelated to TCP threats.
- Complex anycast solution – WEDOS Protection: Yes, mitigates TCP-based floods efficiently.
Solutions
Use rate limiting, SYN cookies, and TCP-level firewalls.
