Media Release:
It’s time to fight back against DDoS attacks
Today, distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks pose the greatest risk to organizations. Attackers use low-cost (or free!) tools to flood networks with so much traffic making them unable to operate – effectively crippling business operations.
Here’s the reality of DDoS attacks:
- In 2011, Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks rose 600%
- DDoS attacks were launched from computers located in 201 countries around the world
- The longest DDoS attack lasted for 80 days
- The average duration of a DDoS attack is 9 hours and 29 minutes
