DDoS protection, VeriSign

VeriSign has entered into the DDoS protection market, hoping the latest spate of DDoS attacks have raised enough concern among companies that they are shopping for solutions.

The firm is using the word “cloud” to describe their DDoS service since it filters network traffic in one of VeriSign’s data centers before it reaches the company network. It entered the market for DDoS protection earlier this year but is announcing a monitoring-only service this week.
