Register.com Selects Prolexic for Proactive DDoS Protection


August 1, 2007; 05:45 AM
Prolexic Technologies, the global leader in managed Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection, is providing enhanced DNS DDoS protection and mitigation services to Register.com, a leading provider of web services and domain registration for small businesses.

Register.com chose Prolexic Clean Pipe Virtual Transport Network® for enhanced DNS DDoS detection and mitigation services to protect its customers against potential future attacks because the Prolexic solution offers the most comprehensive protection against the variety and size of attacks today. These include targeted attacks that take advantage of infrastructure vulnerabilities, such as limited bandwidth; consumption attacks that employ botnets to direct large amounts of traffic at a network, and resource exhaustive attacks that utilize the full processing power of a corporate server farm.

“Our customers rely on us to provide innovative and secure web services,” said Sushant Mohanty, Register.com CIO. “In order to consistently enable the online success of our customers, we must continue to invest in powerful, comprehensive security solutions. That is why we are augmenting our DDoS protection through Prolexic, who has achieved the market leading position in DDoS attack mitigation.”

“Register.com recognizes that DDoS attacks are increasing in frequency, size and sophistication, and has made it a priority to invest in the highest level of protection possible for its customers,” said Bill Sussman, Prolexic’s Vice President of Sales, Americas. “We applaud this approach. Too many companies have only minimal DDoS protection. By the time they come to us after an attack, they have lost significant revenue and brand equity.”
