Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are on the increase – a simple strategy, basically these are large numbers of hijacked browsers or botnets programmed to make constant repeated requests to a webserver or cluster thereof until it/they crash due to CPU or bandwidth overload. DDoS mitigation is built into many of IP Performance’s solution offerings, measuring number of web requests and frequency, and blocking or dropping requests as necessary.

‘We are really happy with the Juniper Mist solution provided by IP Performance and in fact when you look at the number of daily connections I would say it’s exceeded our expectations, for example in our Coatbridge campus the feedback from all staff and students for a number of years has been really negative regarding the Wifi but right now we currently have 600 users connected. The ability to look at the monitor and see what the trends are in terms of time-to-connect and successful connections also gives us the ability to see a problem before it impacts on a number of users. Therefore this reduces the amount of Wifi issues that are submitted to our helpdesk, so this again shows that the solution works.’
