Summary
Akamai (Prolexic)
security cdn edge
The Prolexic DDoS-mitigation network, now part of Akamai. Traffic for protected
customers is routed through these scrubbing centers to filter volumetric attacks
before clean requests reach the origin.
What it's used for
- Absorbing and cleaning DDoS attack traffic on behalf of customers under Akamai/Prolexic protection.
Notable
- An IP here usually fronts a customer that is under DDoS protection, not Akamai's own content. Akamai's core CDN ASNs include [AS20940](https://asn.ipinfo.app/AS20940).
Interesting
- Prolexic pioneered cloud-based DDoS scrubbing in the 2000s; Akamai acquired it in 2014.
