Complimentary Webcast:
DDoS – The Mother of All Cyber Threats

What do Super Bowl XXXVIII, the 2009 July 4th weekend and The Great Twitter Outage have in common? They all were instances of widespread IT disruptions and outages caused by large-scale Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.

Understanding how to protect your business from these attacks requires an understanding of how they have evolved from a technology, actor and motivation perspective.

A Distributed Denial of Service can occur innocuously when crowds of viewers visit a popular Web site at one time, causing servers to fail. But most other attacks are more malicious. DDoS attacks have become the strongest weapon in cyber aggression.

The rise in the number and complexity of DDoS attacks has left all businesses at risk. From e-commerce, to transaction and financial services — DDoS has become a threat that must be included in all risk mitigation plans for any company with critical digital assets.
