IT Pro Webinar: DDoS 2.0

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks have become more common, more powerful and more useful to attackers. They have morphed from mere botnet-based approaches to AI and data-driven models. Why are DDoS attacks becoming more common? Are they part of a larger strategy? What are the essential techniques and best practices that IT pros can use to handle them?
