AWS Shield Advanced has consistently provided notifications regarding DDoS attacks targeting your applications through the AWS Management Console and API, as well as via Amazon CloudWatch metrics. Recently, we introduced the global threat environment dashboard within AWS Shield Advanced, enabling you to track trends and metrics related to DDoS attacks across Amazon CloudFront, Elastic Load Balancing, and Amazon Route 53. This valuable data will help you better understand the DDoS target profile of your utilized AWS services, ultimately assisting you in building a more resilient and distributed architecture for your applications.
The global threat environment dashboard presents comprehensive and easily digestible information about DDoS attacks. It showcases a summary of the global threat landscape, highlighting the most significant attacks, prevalent attack vectors, and the overall number of notable attacks.
