# Additional Mitigation Techniques

***

### Customized Post-Filtering for Special Requirements

For clients with specific requirements or those who are under complex attacks, we offer customizations to our post-filtering process. These include, but are not limited to:

### Custom Post-Filtering Options Explained

* **Geo Rate-limits or Blocks**: These settings restrict or block all incoming traffic from specific geographic locations. Useful for mitigating attacks that originate from particular regions.
* **ASN Rate-limit or Blocking**: This feature limits or blocks traffic from specific Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs). It's particularly effective in countering large-scale attacks originating from a single network operator.
* **IP Blacklists**: A list of IP addresses that are denied access to the network. This is effective in blocking known malicious actors.
* **Packet Length Filters**: These filters scrutinize the size of each data packet and block those that are suspiciously large or small, effectively mitigating attacks that exploit packet size.
* **And many more...**

We encourage clients to reach out to us to discuss these requirements. We will work closely with you to tailor the most effective solution for your individual needs.
