AWS to retire Shield Advanced L7 automatic mitigation on January 1, 2027
AWS Shield Advanced is introducing an Anti-DDoS managed rule group for application-layer protection in Count mode, which will run alongside existing Layer 7 automatic mitigation and AWS WAF rules. Starting January 1, 2027, AWS will retire the automatic mitigation capability and require customers to migrate to the new rule group. The transition preserves traffic visibility while shifting responsibility for manual response configuration to customers.
Why it matters: AWS Shield Advanced subscribers must plan migration before January 1, 2027, or lose automatic layer 7 distributed denial of service (DDoS) protection; teams need to configure the new Anti-DDoS rule group and update incident response procedures.
