DDoS Decision Tools: Capacity Planning and Cost Modelling

Tools

These are working calculators rather than lead-capture forms. Each one prints the formula it uses and states its assumptions, because a number you cannot check by hand is not much use in a procurement document.

None of them carries a vendor-specific default value. Where a figure would have to come from a manufacturer, the tool asks you for it instead of supplying one, and where a calculation cannot settle something it says so rather than producing a confident output.

All of them work with JavaScript disabled: the reference tables are generated at build time and the interactive path is added on top.

DDoS capacity planner
Converts a circuit bit rate into the packet rate a defence has to sustain at each frame size, and prints the arithmetic.
Five-year cost model
A five-year total-cost model for an on-premises tier, with every line item visible and no vendor-supplied defaults.
