Systems and methods are disclosed for providing distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) mitigation service. The systems and methods may receive a request to access a web server from a user host, generate an integrated user challenge page including a user challenge test and a web page image of the web server, and transmits the integrated user challenge page to the user host. The systems and methods may further receive an answer to the user challenge test from the user host, determine whether the answer to the user challenge test is correct or not. When the answer to the user challenge test is correct, the systems and methods may establish a connection between the user host and the web server.

Integrated user challenge presentation for DDoS mitigation service

Embodiments relate to systems, devices, and computing-implemented methods for providing DoS mitigation using a list of persistent clients generated using network flow data. Daily flow counts can be incremented once per date for unique flow combinations in the network flow data that are associated with at least one network interaction that occurred on that date. A candidate list of persistent clients can be created based on the daily flow counts, and the candidate list of persistent clients can be filtered and ranked, and the list of persistent clients can be selected based on the rankings.
