Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attack Mitigation
Businesses trading on the Internet need to protect themselves
from a form of Web-piracy known as DDoS, or Distributed Denial of
Service. DDoS attacks now represent a real financial threat to
companies worldwide. The cost in terms of lost business caused by a
successful attack can be high.
The basic form of a DDoS attack is to flood a website with so
much traffic that it becomes overwhelmed, and crashes. The usual
method for combating this would involve the service provider
blocking traffic. This simply means that the attack has
succeeded.
We have a solution that enables you to continue working
while the attack is being dealt with. The Cable & Wireless
Communications DDoS attack mitigation system identifies and
blocks the flow of malicious traffic while letting legitimate data
through. Suspicious traffic is diverted and investigated to
identify and filter out the bad material. Good traffic is forwarded
to its original destination. This means genuine users and real
transactions always get through so that your business stays up and
running.
Cable & Wireless Communications is able to
protect companies in the Channel Islands and Isle of
Man from these attacks effectively and efficiently. More and
more companies are taking advantage of this specialised service
from us.
