Key metrics for measuring effectiveness include attack volume reduction (measured in Gbps or packets per second), successful attack mitigation rate (percentage of attacks successfully blocked), average mitigation time, false positive rate (percentage of legitimate traffic incorrectly blocked), and service uptime during attacks. These metrics provide valuable insights into the tool's performance and identify areas for improvement.
