GameDay Description
As you consider moving some of your workloads to the cloud, having robust DDoS protection in place will be crucial for maintaining reliability and uptime. Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks aim to overwhelm websites and web applications by flooding them with more traffic than they can handle. These disruptive attacks are on the rise globally - increasing in frequency, sophistication, and size.
Having mitigations in place can mean the difference between a minor inconvenience and complete denial of service to your digital assets. As a public sector organization entrusted with serving citizens, securing infrastructure against DDoS attacks should be a top priority.
We invite you to join our Game Day and upskill yourself to protect your organization.
Test your Skills on a Game Day
- Compete in a team-based environment where you will face real-time threats aimed at an e-commerce site. Your team will use AWS WAF and AWS Shield to mitigate distributed HTTP floods, web exploits, and malicious bots that disrupt the experience of your customers.
- This event provides a risk-free environment for responding to an actual DDoS attack. Your team will need to identify root causes and block each attack quickly without impacting legitimate users.
- Watch a real-time scoreboard and receive feedback from other departments as your team works through each task of the game. The most effective team will earn a prize at the end.
