What differentiates AWS Shield from other similar products?
AWS Shield is a DDoS protect service provided by AWS to protect the applications running in AWS Cloud from malicious attacks such as Distributed Denial of Service, UDP flood attacks and SYN flood attacks without any additional costs. We need to add additional application to enable such functions.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favourite aspect of the product is it's basic version is free of cost. It provides the DDoS services to all our applications hosted in AWS with no additional cost. It provides all essential cyber security features in basic itself. However Shield Advance is not free of cost. There'll be additional cost for using AWS Shield Advance which provides additional security features.
What do you dislike most about this product?
No dislikes for this amazing service from AWS. Although few enhancements would be much appreciated.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you host applications in AWS Cloud, just use this service. Configure shield with all required configurations.
