New Technology Knocks DDOS For Six!
New Anti-DDOS Technology resulting from left of field thinking about how to defend against a "Distributed Denial of Services Attack". Initially it was thought that a software solution, might by itself be able to eradicate the problem. Current mainstream defense utilize mainly hardware solutions like "The Planets" Cisco Guard.
Any Hosting Company would know that the cost to host companies begins at ~ $90,000 US.D. just for the base equipment, and then increase that to ~ $150,000 and one is getting close to a state of the art hardware solution.
Other less expensive solutions involve combined tri-plex solutions utilizing part hardware, software, and staff intrusion management. (i.e. some one must get out of bed and flick a switch)
These tri-plex models can be automated to some degree, but still require personal system manager monitoring.
Anti-DDOS engineers know that for most small businesses and domestic server web sites, the costs of either of these solutions is prohibitive, and that many such clients have been forced right out of business.
The New Hi-Tech solution deploys a carefully thought through means of identifying the point of ddos exploitation and approaching the problem that way, as apposed to identifying the type of threat. DDOSBOTS specifically target certain hardware, and software weaknesses in existing systems. Symntec Intel shields these weaknesses utilizing its advanced tailored design to accommodate these weaknesses, denying DDOS access to exploitive areas. As this technology is literally just off the shelf, the nature and scope of the design and system can not yet be revealed.
