“Specifically, in 2017, 53% of enterprise,
government and education (EGE)
organisations detected attacks on encrypted
services at the application layer.
“Application layer attacks use traffic that is
very difficult to distinguish from genuine user
traffic, often requiring analysis of the actual
application layer transaction to identify the
patterns of activity involved in an attack.
Our approach to this process must change as
TLS 1.3 is adopted.”

Hamman added: “The prevalence of
application layer DDoS attacks showcases
the need for appropriate solutions being
in place. The arrival of TLS1.3 has been
welcomed around the digital world,
but this DDoS example reminds us that
progress in one area often has a knock-on
effect in others.
“TLS1.3 is going to bring a welcome change
to IT security professionals, and with it
the consequent need for organisations to
have all of their IT, networks and security
professionals working together.
“Different solutions exist to tackle the
intricacies of TLS1.3 and will need
to be implemented according to an
organisation’s needs, its customers’ needs
and the local regulatory requirements.
NETSCOUT Arbor is well-equipped to
implement the most appropriate solution
for any business as this exciting new phase
of internet security unfolds.” n
