DDoS Protection

With the rapid spread of ransomware and high-profile security breaches on the rise, cybersecurity is among the highest priorities for most IT professionals. However, one of the most common and debilitating methods a hacker can use to hurt your business is still a Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack. In a DDoS attack, your servers are flooded by a large volume of artificial traffic to overwhelm them and render them temporarily unavailable. For businesses targeted by these attacks, this is catastrophic. Not only does it interrupt normal business operations and create unnecessary setbacks for your team, but it can also impact your business’s reputation.

Atlantic Metro can defend your business against DDoS attacks to ensure reliable network access and prevent potential downtime. With Atlantic Metro’s DDoS Protection services, we monitor and analyze your network traffic 24/7 to identify anomalies which could be indicative of a DDoS attack. Once we have determined that an attack is being directed at your business, we automatically re-route your traffic, and filter out malicious data packets, before redirecting ordinary (“clean”) traffic back to your servers. In most circumstances, this process takes effect within a minute of when an attack is detected, and it allows your users to continue using applications and services normally, without the illegitimate traffic ever reaching you. We offer a variety of service levels to suit your business’s specific requirements.
