For the European Cybersecurity Month 2024 #ThinkB4UClick October 2024 and from now on every 1st time we will publish an article including an interview with one of our partners or customers.
This month for the first article of this kind on our blog we are proud and honored to have the opportunity to talk with Luc M. aka “Moussier Network” as senior consultant since 2009 and Founder of “Just Do DDoS“, a consulting firm dedicated to safeguarding infrastructures against DDoS attacks. Luc M. works with various organizations to help secure their digital infrastructures. In this interview, he explains the role of a DDoS consultant and how the expertise of “Moussier Network” and the development of “Just Do DDoS” fits into its exclusive implementation partnership with “KoDDoS“.
What is a DDoS consultant?
Luc M.: A DDoS consultant is an expert specializing in securing digital infrastructures against Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. As a DDoS consultant, our mission is among other things to support our clients and partners in implementing effective protection measures to prevent these increasingly frequent and sophisticated threats. at “Just Do DDoS” we focus exclusively on DDoS attacks, which allows me to fully master the latest techniques, both for attacking and defending.
At “Just Do DDoS” our role involves analyzing vulnerabilities, proposing tailored solutions, and raising awareness about best security practices. We mainly work with small businesses, SMEs, associations, local authorities, and other organizations, providing solutions that meet their specific needs. As part of our partnership with “KoDDoS“, we can offer even more efficient solutions by combining expertise with cutting-edge technologies.
How do you raise awareness among your clients about DDoS risks?
Luc M.: Awareness is the first critical step. Many businesses still underestimate the severity of DDoS attacks. Our goal is to show them that any organization, regardless of its size, can be targeted. We do this by sharing concrete examples, case studies, and demonstrating the consequences of an attack: service interruptions, loss of revenue, and damage to reputation.
We also emphasize technological monitoring and proactive surveillance. Being aware of emerging cyber threat trends is essential to stay ahead of attackers. We regularly organize awareness sessions where we explain how and why DDoS attacks occur and what needs to be done to prevent them.
What information do you provide your clients about DDoS attacks?
Luc M.: After raising awareness, it’s crucial to provide in-depth information about the different types of DDoS attacks. Our clients need to understand that it’s not a single phenomenon—there are several types of attacks, such as volumetric, protocol-based, and application-layer attacks. Each of them exploits different weaknesses in digital infrastructures.
The goal is to explain in simple but precise terms how these attacks work. For example, we detail the most common methods, such as network traffic flooding (UDP flood) or resource exhaustion through malicious requests (HTTP flood). We also show how these attacks can be triggered by malicious actors, sometimes for a small fee via services on the dark web. This is where collaboration with top-tier partners, like “KoDDoS“, makes all the difference in providing robust solutions.
How important is ongoing training in combating DDoS attacks?
Luc M.: Information alone isn’t enough; continuous training is essential. DDoS attacks are constantly evolving, new techniques emerge regularly, and it’s critical to stay up to date. This is why, at “Just Do DDoS“, we offer specialized training tailored to the needs of businesses.
Our training includes hands-on workshops where teams learn to detect early signs of a DDoS attack and implement real-time mitigation strategies. We also teach incident response procedures so our clients can react quickly and effectively in the event of an attack. The partnership with “KoDDoS” allows us to provide advanced tools and training scenarios based on real-life situations.
Conclusion: Prevention Over Cure
In summary, the role of a DDoS consultant is to raise awareness, inform, and train businesses to effectively protect themselves against denial of service attacks. Thanks to our exclusive partnership with “KoDDoS“, we are able to provide highly effective solutions tailored to each organization.
