AWS Shield is a managed Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection service that safeguards AWS applications against network and transport layer attacks. AWS Shield Standard is automatically included with all AWS services and offers protection against common DDoS attacks. For more advanced protection, AWS Shield Advanced provides additional DDoS mitigation measures. Although AWS WAF, Firewall Manager, and GuardDuty contribute to security, they do not specialize in DDoS mitigation at the network layer like AWS Shield does.
