The only protection is prevention. More people need to have appropriate anti-malware installed on their computers and servers. Botnets (which provide the backbone for any DDoS attack) rely on coordinating computers that have been infected by the botnet to attack specific targets. If every computer in the world had appropriate anti-malware, botnets would be a million times harder to create and maintain.
