Application: Event driven route control (Patent ID: US20230421603A1)
The patent filed by Lumen Technologies Inc. describes a system and method for a DDoS service that utilizes a combination of mitigation and non-mitigation systems. The non-mitigation systems, which are cost-effective, are placed near a customer's network resource and are used during normal conditions to reduce latency and provide efficient access. When an attack is detected, traffic is rerouted from the non-mitigation systems to the mitigation systems to ensure protection for the customer's network resource. The system involves detecting attack events, determining routing schemes, updating DNS zones, and initiating scrubbing of network traffic based on mitigation rules.
The method and system described in the patent involve detecting and responding to attack events by routing network traffic to mitigation systems within a mitigation network. The system communicates routing schemes to routing devices, updates DNS zones, and initiates scrubbing of network traffic during attacks. The patent also covers the use of distributed systems or central servers to determine routing schemes, with predetermined options available before an attack is detected. The customer network resource can be a network or a computer hosting a website, with the system specifically designed to address distributed denial of service attacks. Additionally, the patent includes claims related to a mitigation network with processors and memory, as well as non-transitory computer-readable media containing instructions for implementing the described method.
