Abstract

Functionality is disclosed herein for dynamically deploying an upstream network traffic filter in a network. The upstream network filter is dynamically deployed in a location that is closer to an entry point of an attack such that attack traffic reaches the upstream network filter before reaching a network traffic filter that is configured to perform network traffic filtering for a computing resource that is under attack. The upstream network traffic filter includes rules that are based on at least a portion of the rules that are applied by the network traffic filter.
