The percentage of DDoS attacks performed on L7 application has been reached up to 69%. This reveals the fact that L7 DDoS inspection products with artificial intelligence and located on the entrance of the network as CPE, have become a fundamental defense line.
“Significance of services delivered by trusted experts is increasing”
It is highly critical that services like Security Operations Centers (SOC) and Computer Emergency Response Teams (CERT) should be delivered in a competitive market.
It becomes necessary that security layers should be developed with trusted parties, cyber security awareness of all computer users to be increased; and cyber security of the entities to be supported by local cyber security centers in order to be a forerunner in the cyber space.
