A reverse Proxy server processes all traffic between end-users and a web server. The main objective of a reverse proxy is to protect web servers from incoming traffic.

Origin server connection - The reverse proxy forwards the client request to the web server, establishing a connection via a decoy IP address.

A reverse proxy, on the other hand, regulates a single stream of outbound traffic and forwards connection requests to multiple servers.

To prevent this attack from still disrupting website loading time, high volumes of connection requests are passed through a mesh of reverse proxy servers that absorb and reduce the overall impact of the attack.
