The patent filed by Zscaler Inc. describes systems and methods for defending against volumetric attacks in a cloud-based system. The technology involves monitoring flows and request rates to a Data Center (DC), authenticating addresses, and placing unauthorized addresses in a penalty box for a set period, blocking requests during that time.
