NETSCOUT / Arbor DDoS Protection and Network Visibility Solutions

The Arbor portfolio within NETSCOUT provides visibility into internet and enterprise edge traffic together with DDoS protection. Arbor solutions are designed to detect distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, apply real-time mitigation through traffic anomaly analysis and provide network-wide telemetry.

Zero Second delivers the technical implementation of Arbor solutions across needs analysis, current-state assessment, architecture design, PoC, sizing, installation, configuration, integration, testing and go-live.

Our NETSCOUT / Arbor Solutions and Services

Enterprise DDoS Protection

Arbor solutions combine adaptive signatures and behavior-based metrics to detect high-volume DDoS attacks at the network core and service endpoints. Traffic anomalies are analyzed at session and flow level, and automatic or manual response rules can be triggered.

Zero Second approach: We start by measuring current traffic profiles, then build tolerance thresholds and automated response scenarios that fit your workflows and management processes. We validate mitigation effectiveness with a PoC before moving to production.

Arbor Edge Defense

Arbor Edge Defense (AED) detects and filters malicious traffic at the service provider edge and data center exits. With DNS, HTTP/S and TCP-based anomaly detection, it can isolate attack traffic before it reaches the target service.

Zero Second approach: We handle the placement of edge devices, set up traffic mirroring and sampling, and adapt AED rules to your service architecture, reducing false positives through testing and tuning.

Always-On Inline Protection

Always-on inline architectures continuously process traffic for critical services and apply immediate mitigation, protecting against attacks while managing latency.

Zero Second approach: We assess latency, throughput and packet processing limits to prepare an inline placement plan, and test device capacities and bypass scenarios before go-live.

Adaptive and AI-Assisted DDoS Protection

Arbor solutions learn traffic profiles over time with behavior-based models and machine-learning-assisted analytics, providing protection beyond static signatures against changing attack vectors.

Zero Second approach: We run model training and validation with your network data, limit automated response policies to your acceptance criteria and refine them based on observed behavior.

Arbor Sightline

Arbor Sightline is an analytics layer that provides centralized visibility into network flows and threat indicators, consolidating NetFlow/IPFIX and other telemetry into correlated anomaly reports.

Zero Second approach: We set up the flow collection architecture, optimize filtering and collection policies, and configure Sightline dashboards and reports with indicators specific to your organization.

Arbor Threat Mitigation System (TMS)

Arbor TMS is a physical or virtual mitigation platform designed to clean high-volume attack traffic, applying traffic shaping and drop decisions at network level.

Zero Second approach: We handle TMS sizing, test traffic scenarios and access policies, and implement and validate redirection policies (BGP, ACL and flow redirection) together with your team.

Arbor Cloud, Cloud Signaling and Hybrid DDoS Protection

Arbor Cloud cleans volumetric attack traffic through cloud-based scrubbing. Cloud signaling coordinates on-premises devices and the cloud service, and hybrid architectures combine low-latency local mitigation with cloud capacity for large attacks.

Zero Second approach: We plan cloud signaling integration, assess the security and operational impact of routing scenarios, and implement test and switchover procedures.
