Deploy inline protection at the edge for sub-millisecond response, then seamlessly swing to the cloud when you need unlimited scrubbing capacity. Get the best of both worlds—with no vendor lock-in.
Unlimited capacity for
volumetric attacks
Real-time detection &
sub-second mitigation
Hybrid DDoS protection combines on-premise inline defense with on-demand cloud scrubbing to deliver comprehensive protection without compromise. This dual-layer approach ensures your network stays protected 24/7—with the speed of edge protection and the unlimited capacity of cloud-based mitigation.
Unlike pure cloud solutions that add latency and redirect all traffic, or standalone on-premise appliances that can be overwhelmed by volumetric attacks, hybrid deployment gives you intelligent, adaptive protection that responds to threats in real-time while automatically scaling to handle massive attacks.
The result? Sub-second response times for everyday threats, unlimited capacity for volumetric attacks, and complete control over your security posture—all without vendor lock-in or performance degradation.
Detect and block threats in under 1 second with always-on, inline defense at your network edge.
Automatically swing to cloud scrubbing for massive volumetric attacks that exceed on-prem capacity.
Pay only for cloud scrubbing when you need it. No always-on cloud fees, no over-provisioned hardware.
Deploy your way—use our cloud partners, bring your own cloud, or stay fully on-premise. No vendor lock-in.
Intelligent, adaptive defense that automatically responds to threats at every layer
Inline protection analyzing
all traffic in real-time
All traffic flows through on-premise Corero appliances deployed inline at your network edge. Real-time behavioral analysis monitors every packet with zero added latency.
When threats are detected, malicious traffic is blocked in under 1 second while legitimate traffic flows through unaffected. No DNS changes, no traffic redirection.
Cloud scrubbing capacity remains on standby—ready to activate instantly if attacks exceed on-premise capacity. You only pay for cloud resources when they're needed.
Unlimited capacity filtering
volumetric attack traffic
Volumetric DDoS attack detected—traffic volume exceeds on-premise capacity. Automatic swing-to-cloud is triggered immediately.
Traffic is automatically redirected through cloud scrubbing partners (Akamai, your cloud provider, or Corero's network) for unlimited capacity filtering.
Attack traffic is scrubbed in the cloud, and only clean traffic reaches your on-premise infrastructure. Your services remain available throughout the attack.
Get the best of both worlds—on-premise control with cloud scalability, all without vendor lock-in
Deploy on-premise for complete control, with cloud available when you need it—no forced migrations or rigid architectures.
Eliminate wasteful always-on cloud fees. Pay for cloud scrubbing only during attacks, not 24/7.
Cover all attack vectors—from small, frequent threats to massive volumetric floods—without gaps.
Freedom to change providers, scale independently, and evolve your architecture without costly migrations.
Organizations across industries rely on hybrid protection to balance control, cost, and coverage
High-volume networks requiring carrier-grade protection
"We handle massive traffic volumes daily and can't afford the latency of cloud-only solutions. But when volumetric attacks spike beyond our capacity, we need unlimited scrubbing power immediately."
Financial services, healthcare, and government organizations with strict compliance needs
"Regulatory requirements mandate we keep sensitive data on-premise and maintain full audit trails. But we still need protection against attacks that exceed our infrastructure capacity."
E-commerce, gaming, and event-driven businesses with fluctuating demand
"Our traffic spikes 10x during product launches and holiday seasons. We can't afford to pay for massive cloud capacity year-round, but we need it available when demand surges."
Global enterprises, CDNs, and distributed cloud infrastructure providers
"We operate data centers across multiple regions and need consistent protection everywhere. Managing separate solutions for each location is complex and expensive."
