Does Amazon Beanstalk automatically prevent (distributed) denial of service attack? If not, whats the most convenient way to do so?
In AWS Regions, DDoS attacks are detected and the Shield Standard system automatically baselines traffic, identifies anomalies, and, as necessary, creates mitigations. You can use AWS Shield Standard as part of a DDoS-resilient architecture to protect both web and non-web applications.
AWS Shield is a managed DDoS protection service that safeguards applications running on AWS.
For this, it is essential to have multi-level protection strategies that use intrusion prevention and threat management systems. These systems can use anti-spam, content filtering, VPN, firewalls, load balancing, and security layers to spot and block attacks before they overwhelm your network.

New – AWS Shield AWS Shield is a new managed service that protects your web applications against DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks. It works in conjunction with Elastic Load Balancing, Amazon CloudFront, and Amazon Route 53 and protects you from DDoS attacks of many types, shapes, and sizes. There are two tiers of service:
AWS Shield Standard is available to all AWS customers at no extra cost. It protects you from 96% of the most common attacks today, including SYN/ACK floods, Reflection attacks, and HTTP slow reads. This protection is applied automatically and transparently to your Elastic Load Balancers, CloudFront distributions, and Route 53 resources.
AWS Shield Advanced provides additional DDoS mitigation capability for volumetric attacks, intelligent attack detection, and mitigation for attacks at the application & network layers. You get 24×7 access to our DDoS Response Team (DRT) for custom mitigation during attacks, advanced real time metrics and reports, and DDoS cost protection to guard against bill spikes in the aftermath of a DDoS attack.
