Leverage AI for Automated Attack Stories and Advanced DDoS Mitigation

In today's era of sophisticated cyber threats, time is the most valuable resource for Security Operations Centers (SOCs) and CISOs. The ability to understand, analyze, and respond to DDoS attacks in real time can mean the difference between business continuity and critical service disruption. However, with the complexity of modern DDoS attacks, traditional analysis methods can be slow and overwhelming.

This is where artificial intelligence (AI) transforms the game, enabling the automatic generation of attack stories and comprehensive narratives that give SOC teams and CISOs a clear, actionable understanding of an attack at a glance. With AI's power, the days of sifting through endless logs and raw data are over, allowing teams to focus on what matters most: defending their systems and minimizing downtime.

The Problem: Complexity Overwhelms SOC Teams and CISOs

DDoS attacks are more sophisticated than ever, leveraging multiple attack vectors and targeting various layers of the infrastructure. For SOC teams, managing the flood of traffic and the massive data generated during an attack is overwhelming. Meanwhile, the SOC are left needing clear, concise insights to guide decision-making and communicate effectively with stakeholders.

The traditional approach, manually compiling the attack narrative from scattered logs and data is slow, resource-intensive, and prone to errors. This leads to delays in mitigation and recovery, putting critical business operations at risk.

The Solution: AI-Generated Attack Stories

AI becomes a powerful ally, turning the challenge of analyzing complex attacks into a streamlined process. One of its most transformative capabilities is the automatic creation of attack stories. These narratives provide SOC teams and CISOs with a complete, visually compelling summary of the attack, including:

  • Key attack characteristics: Metrics like TCP flags, source IP distributions, and traffic volumes.
  • Geographical attack insights: The origins and spread of the attack, visualized for clarity.
  • Impacted services and protocols: Specific details about what systems were targeted and how.

Instead of overwhelming SOC teams with raw data, AI synthesizes it into an easily digestible format. These stories make it simple to identify attack patterns, pinpoint sources, and prioritize response efforts.

The power of AI-generated attack stories lies in their ability to bridge the gap between technical complexity and actionable insight. SOC teams can dive deep into technical details, while CISOs gain high-level summaries to guide strategic decisions and communicate effectively with leadership.

Real-Time Response and AI Support

The automatic attack stories are just the beginning. AI enhances the entire defense lifecycle by providing:

  • Rapid Mitigation Recommendations: Tailored, adaptive responses to evolving threats that reduce Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR).
  • AI Chat Support: Real-time assistance, giving SOC teams instant answers, deeper insights, and actionable recommendations without interrupting their workflow.

These features work together to ensure that every stage of an attack, from detection to mitigation and full recovery, is handled with precision and speed.
