Benefits of SEACOM's cloud-based DDoS Protect solutions

SEACOM Business provides Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) security solutions that are designed to protect networks and systems from these types of threats. If your IT network is under a DDoS attack, call us now for assistance on +254 20 513 3170.

DDoS attacks aim to overload and crash a business network, preventing legitimate users from accessing websites, servers and e-commerce stores. Large businesses are often targeted by these threats which aim to cripple networks and gain access to sensitive data.

Any sudden and significant rise in the volume of traffic entering the network is instantly detected by our DDoS Protect system, which reroutes the traffic through a DDoS guard. This filters legitimate users from malicious data and only sends genuine users through to the website, application or e-commerce platform.

This safeguards high-level applications and ensures that only clean data reaches the company's servers, avoiding a system overload and consequent crash. Our DDoS Protect can be set up on-site or hosted on our cloud-based platform. We also offer a hybrid solution.

Advantages of cloud-based DDoS protection

One of the primary advantages of having our DDoS Protect solution hosted on the cloud is that it can be accessed or installed at any office branch anywhere in the world. This means that the DDoS protection software may also be remotely monitored and fixed should an unexpected error occur.

SEACOM Business's cloud hosting platform is safe and secure, with antimalware and firewalls in place, ensuring that our DDoS Protect solutions are always operational. To prevent targeted attacks and server overloads with our cloud-based DDoS protection solutions please email us at marketing@seacom.com or leave us a message.
