What is Denial of Service (DoS)?
As a full reverse proxy, BIG-IP® product family and TMOS™, coupled with Application Security Manager, can recognize DoS attacks against both the network and applications, and they can then block those attacks at the perimeter, keeping them from critical applications and servers. The F5 BIG-IP product family increases Web application performance by directing traffic to the most available resource and by protecting against targeted denial of service attacks. Stringent signature-recognition standards and packet filtering stop malicious attacks before they cost time and money.
