Description: Mitigation difficulties in DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) protection refer to the challenges organizations face when trying to prevent and respond to these malicious attacks. A DDoS attack aims to saturate the resources of a server, network, or service, rendering it inaccessible to legitimate users. These difficulties can arise from the technical complexity of identifying and filtering malicious traffic, the need for significant resources to handle unexpected traffic spikes, and the constantly evolving tactics used by attackers. Additionally, implementing mitigation solutions can be costly and require robust infrastructure, posing an additional challenge for many companies, especially smaller ones. The lack of visibility into network traffic and the difficulty in distinguishing between legitimate and malicious traffic further complicate the situation. Therefore, organizations must adopt a proactive and multifaceted approach to DDoS mitigation, which includes continuous monitoring, collaboration with security service providers, and educating employees on cybersecurity best practices.
