Alternate services reduce the impact of amplification attacks that exhaust primary telecommunications resources.
Amplification attacks that exhaust the primary path are mitigated by the existence of an independent alternate path for command traffic.
Employs controls that mitigate amplification attacks causing asymmetric resource use.
Limits amplification effects by controlling how resources are allocated under high-volume or recursive load.
