Funded Activity Summary
Carrier-scale defence against distributed denial-of-service attacks. Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks are one of the most persistent and damaging threats to services on the Internet. In recent years, there has been widespread use of DDoS attacks for both financial and political advantage by attackers. The challenge for our Australian industry partner (PowerGuard Pty Ltd) is to continue to scale their DDoS defence platform so that it can be used in much higher bandwidth environments, such as carriers’ backbone networks, or large government and commercial networks that have multiple high-speed links to the Internet. The results of this project will provide an Australian company with a leading position in this important and growing market.Funded Activity Details
