MazeBolt Technologies has launched a native deployment of its RADAR validation platform for Akamai DDoS protection customers. This new feature allows enterprises to conduct continuous DDoS testing within their own environments without service interruptions. The RADAR platform addresses configuration gaps that can arise as companies expand their digital services and APIs. According to MazeBolt, 37% of attack vectors can bypass existing protections during initial tests. Akamai's report noted a 104% increase in Layer 7 DDoS attacks from 2023 to 2025, attributed to AI-driven attack tools. The RADAR deployment aims to provide ongoing evidence of DDoS resilience, enabling security teams to validate their defenses continuously. The tool simulates attacks and generates reports with remediation guidance tailored to the specific protection vendor. The launch is timely, as many enterprises test their DDoS defenses infrequently, with a MazeBolt survey indicating that 86% of security leaders test once a year or less.
