Gigenet

The Industry Leader In Denial of Service Mitigation & Prevention

Overview

Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks aimed at shutting down web sites have replaced intellectual property theft as the costliest computer crime, according to the US-based Computer Security Institute.

By placing your web site behind our ProxyShield® mitigation system, you are effectively putting a stop to denial of service attacks which may otherwise cause extended periods of downtime for you and your customers. With multiple gigabits of Tier-1 internet connectivity, our network can handle attacks of virtually any size.

There is no hardware to buy, and you can keep your current host. Simply make a few easy changes to your web site's DNS records and we will take care of the rest.

How it Works

Implementing the Proxyshield protection for your website is simple:

Gigenet will issue an IP address that you will point your DNS to. If you are not in control of your website's DNS records, we can host your DNS for you.
Within minutes, all traffic to your website will be redirected through our network, where an in-depth analysis will take place, dropping any malicious traffic.
Clean, legitimate traffic will be forwarded on to your website, wherever it is hosted.
Your users will not be affected, and the attackers will never be able to see your real IP, preventing them from targeting it directly.

Cost

DDoS attacks can cost your business tens, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars due to downtime. Due to the complex nature of DDoS, it is extremely difficult and expensive to stop.

Gigenet is able to leverage the cost of DDoS mitigation amongst a large group of businesses, giving you access to the infrastructure that would normally be out of reach financially.

Sample pricing - cost can vary based on type of website, attack frequency, attack size, packets per second.
