The Growing Need for DDoS Detection and Protection

Aided by a growing number of "botnets" and increased criminal sophistication, DDoS attacks against eGaming businesses and applications are becoming larger and more frequent, making it extremely difficult for IT organizations to keep pace. Traditional solutions no longer provide sufficient protection from most DDoS attacks. Given the potential risks to an eGaming business’s revenue and reputation from application or system downtime, it's critical your business continuity strategy include an effective DDoS mitigation solution.

Addressing Your Specific DDoS Concerns

The challenge of maintaining critical system and application uptime impacts people throughout an eGaming organization. The VIDN provides value to multiple people as well — from the Network Director to the C-level officer to the Fraud and Payments Directors. When it comes to mitigating costly Distributed Denial of Service attacks, or DDoS attacks, Computrad with Verisign provides both protection and peace of mind.
