HAProxy: No, not effective for unknown vulnerabilities.
IDS Suricata: Partially, detects unusual traffic patterns.
WAF: Partially, mitigates some new threats.
OWASP Rules: No, unrelated to zero-day attacks.
Complex anycast solution – WEDOS Global (or Cloudflare for example): Yes, manages zero-day DDoS attacks using anomaly detection.
