Infrastructure-as-a-Service Provider DDoS Protection Case Study

This case study details the selection of Corero Network Security by a global infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) provider for zero-latency DDoS protection. The IaaS provider, which serves performance-sensitive industries such as gaming and financial services, faced challenges related to latency and network performance. Their strategy included high-density cloud computing services and a need for a DDoS solution that would not impact performance. After evaluating multiple options, they engaged in a proof of concept with Corero, which met their requirements for seamless integration and performance. The Corero SmartWall ONE platform allows for client onboarding, alert setup, and attack monitoring. The implementation was successful, leading to a fully integrated DDoS protection-as-a-service offering, which provides comprehensive visibility and rapid detection of attacks. The solution has resulted in low total cost of ownership and increased revenue growth for the IaaS provider, with a high renewal rate indicating customer satisfaction.
