What Ddos...?

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks have rapidly become a commonplace threat to doing business on the internet. With over 2,000 distinct attacks per week, denial of service has quickly become the most costly form of cyber-crime businesses face today. This means that the likes of Microsoft, CERT, E-Trade, SCO, Yahoo, and Akamai, all of whom have collectively lost over $1 billion as a result of recent successful attacks, are no longer the only targets of DDoS; thousands of sites, varying in size of online activity and internet presence, are now subjected to attacks day in and day out. In response, Prolexic Technologies provides cutting edge solutions that protect Internet operations from the debilitating service disruptions caused by DDoS attacks. Prolexic's patent-pending Intrusion Prevention Network (IPN) offers "clean pipe" connectivity that keeps its clients' internet-facing infrastructures free of DDoS traffic, worms, and other server exploits. Without making major adjustments or multimillion-dollar investments in their existing hardware infrastructures, Prolexic's customers rest assured that their network borders are secure and can thus focus on what is really important: their businesses.
