1min readScale to Win, a campaign technology company, was targeted by distributed denial of service (DDoS) events during the 2024 US presidential election campaign season. To mitigate these events, the company partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to implement AWS WAF, AWS Shield Advanced, and Amazon CloudFront. They used AWS WAF support for CAPTCHA to block suspicious traffic and rate limit legitimate clients. By configuring their network topology and segmenting machine-to-machine and browser-to-machine traffic, Scale to Win was able to effectively block DDoS events.
