How Gateway Threat Authority Works

Three-stage protection system for comprehensive network defense

Gateway Threat Authority Architecture
1
Traffic Analysis

Edge routers send flow data (NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX) and packet captures (PCAP) to GTA for real-time analysis of network traffic patterns.

2
DDoS Detection

Gateway Threat Controller analyzes traffic patterns, distinguishes between legitimate traffic and DDoS attacks, and triggers real-time alerts.

3
Automated Mitigation

Implements BGP blackholing, traffic filtering, and provides threat dashboards while protecting internal networks (data centers, offices, servers).
