AWS Shield Automatic seamlessly integrates with other AWS services like Amazon CloudFront and Elastic Load Balancing (ELB). When these services are used, Shield Automatic automatically protects them from DDoS attacks. CloudFront benefits from Shield's global network to absorb attacks closer to the source, while ELB benefits from Shield's ability to distribute traffic and filter malicious requests. No configuration is required; protection is enabled by default.
