JARING ENSURES NETWORK PROTECTION WITH DDoS ARMOUR

KUALA LUMPUR, MARCH 19, 2012 – JARING, the nation’s premier Internet Service Provider, today announced a new service, JARING DDoS Armour, designed to protect customers’ businesses and networks from multi-vector DDoS attacks.

The JARING DDoS Armour service, a managed service that monitors, detects and automatically mitigates any DDoS attack on customers’ networks, is now being offered to JARING’s corporate customers who are currently utilising its Dedicated Internet Access, Internet Data Centre and/or OneCloud or Cloud Computing services. Encik Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Yaacob, CEO of JARING Communications Sdn Bhd.

DDoS or Distributed-Denial-of-Service refers to attacks and attempts launched by individuals or a group of people with the aim to overload and overwhelm computer/network resources to a point that renders those services unavailable, sometimes temporarily and in some severe instances, indefinitely.

DDoS attacks occur when multiple compromised systems are used to target a single system, by sending repeated malformed packets requests, overwhelming the receiving host and rendering it incapable to respond to the high magnitude of requests. DDoS attacks can be carried out virtually and anonymously over the Internet through the use of compromised PCs.


How JARING DDoS Armour Helps Protect Your Business and Network

Victims of such attacks include the end targeted system as well as systems in the network path and all systems maliciously used and controlled by the perpetrator in the distributed attacks.

When successful, DDoS attacks will result in service downtime and great losses including short-term financial losses, long-term reputational losses and even permanent business disability especially for businesses with core revenue generating functions.

“The JARING DDoS Armour service is fully managed by a highly experienced technical team at JARING so there are no costly capital expenses involved for this immediate protection against potential threats to our customers’ businesses and networks,” said Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Yaacob, Chief Executive Officer of JARING Communications Sdn Bhd.

JARING DDoS Armour utilises advanced hybrid techniques to determine legitimate attacks in every packet that arrives in the network. The solution provides infrastructure visibility, security and delivery of managed security services especially for mitigating the threat of DDoS attacks. The technology is currently widely used by many telecommunications companies and high-profile websites worldwide.

“JARING has actually been utilising the DDoS mitigation technology since two years ago to protect our core network and based on our own experience and track record, we are now extending this service to our clients.


“We strongly urge companies, especially financial institutions, government agencies and high-profile websites to leverage on the JARING DDoS Armour services to defend against the DDoS attacks that may affect continuity of online services and results in loss of revenue and brand image,” concluded Nik Abdul Aziz.
