AWS has introduced automatic application layer (L7) DDoS protection through AWS WAF, enabling faster detection and mitigation of DDoS events. This enhancement allows cloud security administrators to protect applications with reduced operational overhead by automatically applying rules based on traffic anomalies. The feature is available for AWS WAF and AWS Shield Advanced subscribers across most regions, with configurations customizable to specific application needs.
