THE SECURITY HOW-TO SERIES BY FASTLY

How to Mitigate DDoS Attacks in Seconds Using AI

The Security How-To Series by Fastly tackles today's escalating threat landscape head-on. As digital experiences grow more connected, attackers are increasingly using generative AI to launch automated, highly evasive DDoS campaigns with alarming efficiency.

In fact, AI-powered DDoS incidents reached a record high of 2.1 million unique incidents, leaving traditional defense methods struggling to keep up. Join this session to hear The Security experts unpack top concerns facing security teams today, then dive into other evolving threats that demand smarter, faster defenses.

In this session, you will hear Fastly's Security experts speak about:

  • Defeating AI-Driven Multi-Vector Threats: Understanding the scale of the 2.1 million new AI botnet operations and how they footprint your vulnerabilities.
  • The Cost of the 12-Second Traffic Spike: Why manual mitigation fails against micro-attacks and how the average $5,600/minute downtime cost impacts enterprise e-commerce and media.
  • Adaptive Threat Intelligence: How to baseline 10+ traffic attributes automatically and deploy automated, short-lived edge rules that clear themselves out without causing false positives.

By attending, you will have access to a specialized DDoS demo, to be scheduled after the session with our Security experts.
