Cisco 16G Hybrid Always-On Cloud DDoS Protection, 1Y | DDoS Service — L-RD-CAOH-16G-1Y

Keep critical services reachable when volumetric attacks hit with Cisco’s 16G Hybrid Always-On Cloud DDoS Protection Service. This 1-year subscription is designed for environments that need continuous protection rather than reactive cleanup after an outage begins. By pairing hybrid deployment with always-on cloud mitigation, it helps preserve application availability and reduce the operational impact of distributed denial-of-service events. For infrastructure teams responsible for customer-facing services, uptime is not a feature — it is the requirement. This service is positioned for that reality, giving security and network teams a protection model that can absorb attack traffic while preserving legitimate access. The hybrid approach is especially valuable when you need a balance of local control and cloud-scale mitigation capacity. Compared with lower-cost point solutions that only respond after thresholds are crossed, always-on protection is built for organizations that need continuous readiness. That makes it a strong fit for high-availability environments, internet-facing applications, and services where downtime carries direct business cost. The result is steadier availability, less operational disruption, and a clearer path to defending critical workloads at scale.
