A computer-implemented system and method for mitigating against denial of service attacks. The system includes a network having a plurality of programmable network switches and a mitigation device connected to one or more of the network switches. The mitigation device includes logic integrated with and/or executable by a processor. The logic being adapted to monitor network traffic from one or more of the network switches and determine network policies to provide protection against denial of service attacks. The mitigation device is configured and adapted to send a software-defined networking (SDN) protocol signal to the one or more of the network switches to program the one or more of the switches to match and drop attacker data traffic contingent upon the determined network policies.
