US Signal<\/a>, a leading data center services provider, today announced the launch of its managed Website and Application Security Solution. The company is no stranger to cybersecurity – this new solution is in addition to DDoS protection. The new cloud-based offering builds on US Signal\u2019s partnership with Cloudflare to deliver a robust, customizable service that protects organizations against online threats that include DDoS, ransomware, malicious bots and application-layer attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to US Signal\u2019s 2019 State of Web and DDoS Attacks<\/a> survey, DDoS attacks have impacted 83 percent of organizations in the last two years and, in the majority of cases, caused 12 hours of downtime. These findings demonstrate how important it is for organizations to protect themselves from such attacks. Launched in September 2018, US Signal’s DDoS protection service remains a central part of the company\u2019s new Website and Application Security Solution. The underlying technology already protects more than 18 million internet properties, globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, respondents said their most recent cyberattack cost them $152,439. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a cloud-based solution, US Signal\u2019s new Website and Application Security Solution filters unwanted or malicious traffic before it ever hits a customer network. This leads to cleaner web traffic and more effective use of resources, such as internet bandwidth and server capacity, which are needed to host applications and websites. Granular filtering controls, such as rate-limiting, help to filter out unwanted bot and malicious traffic while ensuring real users can always get to where they need to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also\nfeatures DDoS, TLS, and firewall protections that can be extended to TCP and\nUDP ports, providing protections against port-specific attacks, such as those\nused to infiltrate networks and inject ransomware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nsolution also includes a component that works with existing identity and access\nmanagement (IAM) solutions. It allows customers to leverage their existing\nsingle sign-on (SSO) providers to apply application-level user permissions to\nprovide security, authentication and monitoring of domains and applications.\nEnd users get simple, quick and secure access to internal applications without\nneeding a VPN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also\nincludes a web application firewall (WAF)\u2014one of the most powerful tools\navailable to combat application-layer attacks. It deploys the OWASP top 10 along\nwith over 85 special rules to prevent hackers from using common exploits. US\nSignal\u2019s WAF also offers the option to write custom rules to protect from\nvulnerabilities that are specific to individual customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside\nfrom DDoS protection, WAF and IAM integration, US Signal\u2019s new service offers\noptional tools, including managed DNS, SSL\/TLS, content delivery network (CDN),\nDNSSEC, an IP firewall, website performance optimization, edge caching,\nserverless application deployments and cloud load balancing. This makes it one\nof the most robust, multifaceted approaches to security and cybercrime\nprotection on the market today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
