Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection service
Descriptions
The requirement for a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection service sits within the BBC Technology and Media Operations group, and specifically the Digital Distribution team. * Digital Distribution has had a Network DDoS Protection service in place since 2016 to protect the BBC’s Internet Network. The purpose of this is to provide a malicious traffic ‘scrubbing’ facility in the event of a volumetric packet-based or protocol-based traffic attack targeting the services on the network and exhausting circuit or server capacity. It forms part of a suite of protection services and techniques required to continually protect the BBC’s Internet edge from attack. * The BBC’s Internet Network carries all the BBC's audience facing traffic and CDN origin traffic. Additionally, it provides transit for the corporate network. The availability of this network and services delivered across it are crucial in maintaining the BBC’s online presence for critical services such as www.bbc.co.uk and BBC iPlayer. * The current DDoS protection service has been provided by the incumbent supplier since 2019. The BBC is now entering a tender process to procure this service from December 2025 and ensure continued network DDoS protection.
