So I had a tech session on the DDoS Secure product a while back and my takeaway 
was that it is targeted at the low'n'slow style of DDoS rather than volumetric 
attacks that products like Arbour et. al. assist with mitigating - at the end 
of the day, you position it logically in front of your servers/LB (it's a 
transparent bridge).

In drastically simplified terms, it uses a truck load of heuristics and other 
magic™ to determine whether requests to your infrastructure are machine-based 
or interactive, and then depending on whether traffic flows are in profile or 
not (servers under load etc.), reacts.  Webcrawlers and other "legit" machine 
traffic are also handled gracefully.

The technology behind it looks quite interesting, and coupled with WebApp 
Secure/Mykonos it is certainly a different take on the typical mod_secure/WAF 
story for any content providers.

It would be nice if product marketing had picked a slightly less evocative name 
though - when someone says DDoS, I'm sure most think instantly of pipe-filling 
packet storms.
