Tata Communications has launched its network-agnostic Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection, globally. Delivered over a cloud-based infrastructure, Tata Communications' DDoS Detection and Mitigation services will now be available to any enterprise that depends on its internet availability to serve customers, suppliers, partners and other stake-holders regardless of which service provider supplies it with internet connectivity.
The DDoS solution from Tata Communications constantly monitors traffic patterns across a network, detects attacks against a customer's internet-facing infrastructure and then 'scrubs' the data, discarding attack traffic while ensuring that legitimate traffic can reach the intended infrastructure. This allows the customer's business to stay online and fully operational throughout an attack.
"Tata Communications operates the largest DDoS scrubbing infrastructure built into any carrier's backbone. We are also one of the largest ISPs in the world. With this scale, we have successfully defended every DDoS attack levied against our customers. By expanding our offering to be network agnostic, we're now making the capability available to a much larger community - a community that requires access to a high-capacity infrastructure where their traffic can be scrubbed rather than black-holed," said Adam Rice, Chief Security Officer& VP, Managed Security Services, Tata Communications.
