SMARTCOM TELEPHONE DETECTS AND MITIGATES DDoS ATTACKS BEFORE THEY REACH YOU
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks aim to cripple an organization’s network, servers or applications by overwhelming them with malicious traffic, which can cause them to go down for anywhere from a few minutes up to days at a time. Such attacks can severely limit an organization’s ability to function and typically cost hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages, lost revenue and consumer trust.
WHY IT MATTERS
The rates of successful DDoS attacks continue to rise every year.
DDoS Shield from Smartcom Telephone, LLC (SCT) can protect your business from the dangers of DDoS attacks before they reach your network. Featuring 24/7/365 detection and mitigation in seconds, plus an easy-to-use portal for comprehensive visibility into your threat landscape, you’ll gain peace of mind knowing that your business is protected. And, because DDoS Shield can be added to your SCT Internet service, you’ll reduce your overall security investment and cyber risk in the process.
HOW IT WORKS
SCT’s DDoS Shield makes use of automated cyber threat detection and mitigation technology that works in real time to monitor for malicious traffic and block it in seconds, before it can affect your communications network.
Because the detection and mitigation of your traffic is contained within in the SCT network—unlike other solutions, whom utilize BGP redirect and scrubbing Centers, SCT’s solution provides near zero network latency and mitigation in seconds. For added insight into your organization’s overall threat landscape, DDoS Shield offers access to a secure customer portal, for a real-time view of practical attack analytics (e.g., top attacked assets) along with details about each attack (e.g., status, type, frequency, duration and size), all of which is useful to improve your security posture. You can also choose to receive real-time email alerts that will notify you when an attack has occurred, as well as reports for clear and actionable intelligence on DDoS attack activity happening across your network.
