Watch slow variations and bound the degradation.
The threat
slow probing, stretched campaigns, progressive service degradation up to partial unavailability, with no spike that trips classic alarms.
Blind spotWhy classic frameworks miss it
alert thresholds are built on spikes; an under-threshold attack stays invisible while fragmenting the signals.
MitigationProposed approach
telemetry (OpenTelemetry, Grafana), anomaly detection, alerts on slow variations, bounded capacity and degradation.
The proposed control
telemetry and degradation bounds on the service.
Expected evidence
a slow attack is detected before operational impact.
