aws_shield AWS Shield respond significant T1498 Network Denial of Service
aws_shield AWS Shield respond significant T1498.001 Direct Network Flood
Comments
AWS Shield will set and use a static network flow threshold to detect incoming traffic to AWS services. This will reduce direct network DOS attacks by applying an undisclosed combination of traffic signatures, anomaly algorithms, and other analysis techniques to detect malicious traffic in real-time. AWS Shield Advance identifies anomalies in network traffic to flag attempted attacks and execute inline mitigations to resolve the issue.
