Layer 7 DDoS Mitigation

Interactive Layer-7 DDoS simulator: watch Slowloris bots exhaust a server's connection pool and HTTP-flood bots spike its CPU with expensive queries — both indistinguishable from real users by IP or volume alone — then toggle a behavioural WAF that fingerprints browsers and scores request patterns instead.

Cybersecurity3DModerate60 FPS💧 Water

A botnet of Slowloris and HTTP-flood bots attacks a web server whose real, exhaustible resources are shown live: a fixed connection pool and a CPU gauge. Because every request looks like ordinary HTTP traffic, simple IP or volume-based filters can't tell it apart from real users. Switch on the behavioural WAF to score requests by challenge response and timing pattern instead, and watch the server recover.

⚙ Under the hood

Slowloris bots exhaust a server's connection pool while HTTP-flood bots spike its CPU with expensive queries — both look like ordinary HTTP traffic, so IP or volume filtering can't stop them. Toggle a behavioural WAF that scores challenge response and timing pattern instead, and watch the connection-pool and CPU gauges recover.
