I assume they don't list their testing methodology right? It always feels like they just read vendor spec sheets.

Good day all,

Anybody here has experienced a PoC for any anti DDoS appliance, or already using a anti DDoS appliance in production and able to share his user experience/review?

We need to collect good reviews from people whom got their hands dirty with the configuration/attack mitigation, real experience.

Thanks,

Ramy
