Your Network Is More Than a “Dumb Pipe”

You've invested millions in your network. Why should customers see only a "dumb pipe"?

Your team knows what it takes to keep that network running.
The capacity planning.
The upgrades.
The pressure when a customer's service goes down.

Yet when the conversation turns to value, it too often comes back to bandwidth and price.

DDoS protection adds another layer of pressure: scrubbing fees, traffic backhauling, dedicated appliances, and the cost of keeping up as attacks evolve.

Centralized scrubbing alone can leave gaps.
Traffic redirection takes time.
Compromised subscriber devices can attack from inside the network.
Scaling protection can mean another hardware investment.

What if the routers you already own could help protect your network and give customers another reason to choose you?

Cisco Secure DDoS Edge Protection brings ML-powered detection and mitigation directly to supported Cisco IOS XR routers. Its software detectors run in Docker containers, while the router's existing hardware filters malicious traffic at line rate.

No additional DDoS appliance required.

That gives service providers a practical way to:

• Protect traffic in every direction.
• Respond as attacks change.
• Reduce the cost of protection.
• Build a billable security service.

Your routers already carry your traffic. Put them to work protecting your customers and growing your business.

Let's talk about what that could look like in your network.
