Session Sponsored by:

Cigital logo - PNG

More and more organizations face very real DDoS threats that impact service availability and translate to brand damage.  The most common approaches to mitigating DDoS attacks are reactive controls placed in the network path and upstream provider countermeasures.  Unfortunately, many organizations overlook simple and cost-effective application-layer controls that can significantly bolster their defenses against DDoS attacks.  This talk will take a focused look at what type of actions can be taken to make web applications more resistant to resource depravation attacks.
