DDoS Attack Prevention: Understanding the Threat and Solutions
A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is one of the most disruptive online threats that targets companies as well as regular online users. At Audra Solutions Limited, we understand that cybersecurity must be accessible to everyone with high IT budgets. Our objective is to simplify and strengthen Internet security for homes, SoHo users, and small to mid-sized businesses — giving every user the confidence to stay protected online.
Our innovative 2-in-1 router and firewall devices are designed to prevent cyber threats such as phishing, ransomware, unauthorized access, malware, and especially distributed denial of service attacks — ensuring your network remains secure and always available.
What is a DDoS Attack ?
A DDoS attack targets a site or system by clogging it with a massive amount of requests from thousands of compromised devices. This huge influx of fake requests causes the service to slow down or crash entirely, making it blocked to legitimate users.
Hackers often use large groups of infected devices to launch these attacks. The impact can be costly, including business downtime, financial loss, damage to reputation, and compromised safety of digital systems.
Different Kinds of DDoS Attack
There are various forms of a DDoS attack, including:
• Volume Attacks: Overload the bandwidth with massive traffic to overwhelm the entire network.
• Protocol Attacks Take advantage of flaws within network protocols to interrupt communication between systems.
• Layer 7 Attacks: Target specific web applications such as login pages or search boxes to exhaust server resources.
Whichever type is launched, the goal remains the same — block service availability and create chaos.

Why DDoS Attack Protection is Critical Today
With growing numbers of connected devices, cloud apps, and remote connections than ever, exposure to threats is increasing rapidly. Even a short DDoS attack can cause:
• Interruption of services and lost business revenue
• Disrupted communication and angry clients
