About IBM Cloud Internet Services
Get DDoS protection; global load balancing; and a suite of security, reliability and performance capabilities designed to protect public-facing web content and applications before they reach the cloud. From a high level, a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is like a traffic jam clogging up a highway, preventing regular traffic from arriving at its desired destination. A DDoS attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt the normal traffic of a server, service or network by overwhelming the target or its surrounding infrastructure with a flood of internet traffic. IBM Cloud Internet Services is a simple set of edge network services for clients looking to secure their internet-facing applications from DDoS attacks, data theft and bot attacks, and for those clients needing to optimize their web applications, or ensure global responsiveness and the ongoing availability of their internet-facing applications.
