All Amazon CloudFront edge locations are protected against infrastructure-level DDoS threats with AWS Shield Standard that uses always-on network flow monitoring and in-line mitigation to minimize application latency and downtime. You also have the ability to add additional layers of security for applications to protect them against common web exploits and bot attacks by enabling AWS WAF.
Traffic delivered from this edge location is included within the South America region pricing. To learn more about AWS edge locations, see CloudFront edge locations.
