Avydos DDoS Threat Simulation Description
Avydos DDoS Threat Simulation is a self-service, cloud-based platform designed for security engineers to conduct controlled DDoS attack simulations against their own infrastructure. It enables organizations to test the resilience and availability of their systems, networks, and individual components under simulated DDoS conditions without relying on external parties. The platform supports both Layer 3/4 (volumetric) and Layer 7 (application-layer) attack simulations, allowing users to test against a wide range of DDoS protection technologies and configurations. It is positioned to support compliance with frameworks such as DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act) and NIS2 by enabling threat-led penetration testing (TLPT) and operational resilience validation. Key capabilities include: - Single and multi-vector DDoS attack simulations - Live dashboards for tracking ongoing simulated attacks and target reactions - Sensor-based measurement of filter quality and detection speed - Reporting and analysis tools with a standardized DRS-Score for evaluability - Detection of misconfigurations in protection components such as WAFs, load balancers, firewalls, IDS appliances, and stacks - Validation of third-party and cloud-based DDoS protection measures - 24/7 automated access with individual user accounts The platform is offered in three tiers: BASIC, EXPERT, and ENTERPRISE, with the ENTERPRISE tier providing an unlimited and individualized test environment with Avydos support. Deployment involves SLA agreement, staff training, and platform customization. It has been tested against technologies from vendors including Cloudflare, Akamai, AWS, F5, Cisco, Fortinet, Palo Alto Networks, Imperva, Radware, Arbor, SonicWall, Sophos, Check Point, Juniper, and others.
