What Azure DDoS Protection is

Azure DDoS Protection is a web-based cloud service for always-on mitigation of network-layer distributed denial-of-service attacks. Managed mitigation is included, and a free plan is available. The DDoS IP Protection plan costs $199 a month, billed on 730 hours per month, and protects an individual public IP resource. The service uses a cloud deployment model and focuses on network attack layers. These plan details help distinguish protection for one public IP from the network plan’s stated allowance. Organizations can therefore compare the number of public IP resources they need protected with the available plan structure and note the separate absence of WAF coverage.
