Role Based Access Control
Scaling
- Independence of resources
- Unlike other DDoS cloud-scrubbing services that process traffic symmetrically, degrading the user experience with slow page load times or broken links, Silverline DDoS Protection has several asymmetric traffic return mechanisms. These include Layer 2 VPN (L2VPN) technology, allowing high-traffic sites to take advantage of protection without affecting the user experience. Only a fraction of the bandwidth is required to process inbound traffic, ensuring normal delivery of traffic back to your users with the lowest rate of false positives and with maximum performance.
