Cisco 40G Always-On Cloud DDoS Service Fixed SMS-1000 | Cloud Security — RD-CAO-40G-SMS-1K

Maintain service availability when attack traffic spikes with Cisco 40G Always-On Cloud DDoS Service Fixed SMS-1000. This cloud-based protection service is designed to keep critical workloads online by continuously filtering malicious traffic before it reaches your infrastructure. The 40G capacity target makes this service a fit for environments that need meaningful headroom against large-scale volumetric events. Instead of depending on reactive mitigation after an incident begins, always-on protection keeps defenses active so your team is not forced to scramble during the first minutes of an attack. For enterprises that run customer-facing applications, transaction systems, or externally exposed services, DDoS resilience is not optional. This service helps preserve availability, reduce operational disruption, and protect the user experience when traffic surges are hostile rather than legitimate. It is especially valuable where downtime carries direct revenue, compliance, or reputation impact. SMS-1000 indicates a fixed service package, which is useful for procurement teams that need predictable scope and a clear buying path. The result is a security control that supports uptime planning, simplifies acquisition, and justifies its place in higher-stakes network protection strategies.
