Cisco 500M Hybrid Always-On Cloud DDoS Protection 5Y | Cloud Security — L-RD-CAOH500M-5Y

Keep critical services reachable during distributed denial-of-service events with Cisco 500M Hybrid Always-On Cloud DDoS Protection Service. Designed for environments that cannot afford traffic disruption, this service adds always-on cloud mitigation to help absorb attack traffic before it reaches the systems that matter. The hybrid model gives security and infrastructure teams a practical way to pair cloud-scale protection with existing network architecture. That matters when uptime is tied to revenue, customer trust, or operational continuity. Instead of waiting to react after an attack begins, always-on protection is positioned to help maintain service availability through sustained pressure. The 500M service tier is suited to organizations that need a defined protection capacity and a long-term licensing horizon. A 5-year subscription supports procurement planning and reduces renewal churn while keeping protection aligned to the deployment lifecycle. For teams evaluating DDoS services, this model is about more than blocking traffic — it is about preserving access, protecting user experience, and keeping critical workloads online when attack conditions intensify.
