The DDoS Resiliency Score (DRS) is an open standard, which provides an objective yardstick for measuring, comparing, and assessing DDoS threat and protection levels at individual companies and across industries. Using the DRS scores, you can:
The DRS defines seven ascending levels of DDoS attacks. Each level introduces an increased threat, with additional types of attacks, more sophisticated attack vectors, and increased traffic volumes.
For example, at level 4 (“sophisticated”), network, web and DNS attacks are carried out at volumes of up to 5 gigabits per second (GBPS), 4 million packets per second (PPS), or 200K transactions per second (TPS). Level 4 attacks, and even higher, are quite common in the financial industry.
Following our DDoS simulation testing, we provide a detailed report that includes a DRS score, indicating your current protection level and recommendations for hardening. The DRS score allows you to clearly evaluate the improvement in your DDoS protection.
