A company is building a web application using AWS.
Which AWS service will help prevent network layer DDoS attacks against the web application?
AWS Shield provides protection against DDoS attacks at the network and transport layers (Layer 3 and Layer 4). AWS WAF protects web applications at Layer 7, Firewall Manager centrally manages firewall policies, and GuardDuty detects threats through behavioral analysis. For network layer DDoS prevention, Shield is the correct service.
