Neustar, Inc. ניוסטאר (NYSE: NSR), ספקית אמינה ניטרלית של שירותי מידע בזמן אמת, הודיעה היום שהיא שילשה את הקיבולת של רשת הפחתת ה-DDoS הגלובלית שלה שמגיעה ל-4 Tbps באירופה, המזרח התיכון ואפריקה ובסינגפור. זה מציב את החברה בטווח הגעה ליעד שלה - רשת הגנה גלובלית מפני DDoS בקיבולת של 10 Tbps, שתהיה רשת ההפחתה וההגנה מפני DDoS הגדולה ביותר, המבוזרת ביותר והכי מתקדמת מבחינה טכנית בעולם -- עד תחילת 2018.

באירופה, המזרח התיכון ואפריקה, ניוסטאר הגדילה משמעותית את קיבולת הרשת עם גידול של 244 אחוז מ-320 Gbps ליותר מ-1 Tbps שמבוזרים על פני שלושה צמתים בפרנקפורט, אמסטרדם ולונדון לבדן. גם באזור אסיה פסיפיק יש צומת חדש של 200 Gbps בסינגפור, שמכפיל את הקיבולת בתוך האזור וצמתים גדולים נוספים יבואו בקרוב בעקבותיו. עד הרבעון הראשון של 2018, רשת ההגנה הגלובלית מפני DDoS של ניוסטאר תכלול 27 צמתים, מבוזרים על פני כל האזורים.

"אנחנו משנים את המודל מקומץ של מרכזי ניקוי למודל מבוזר בקנה מידה עולמי. זה שינוי גדול לעומת התקופה שבה הקמתי את ענף ההגנה מפני DDoS", אמר בארט ליון, מנהל המחקר ופיתוח של האבטחה. "הקיבולת של הרשת שלנו תאפשר לניוסטאר להציע יכולת הפחתה וביצועי רשת שאין כמותם כדי שלקוחותינו יישארו מוגנים מפני התקפות DDoS מכל סוג".

Neustar Triples Global DDoS Defence Network Mitigation Capacity to More Than 4 Tbps Including EMEA and Singapore

EMEA nodes expanded to over 1Tbps of regional capacity distributed across Frankfurt, Amsterdam and London

STERLING, Va., 1 June 2017, (BUSINESS WIRE):

Neustar, Inc. (NYSE: NSR), a trusted, neutral provider of real-time information services, today announced that it has tripled its global DDoS mitigation network capacity reaching 4 Tbps across EMEA and Singapore. This places the company within close reach of its goal of a 10 Tbps Global DDoS Defence Network, which will be the world’s largest, most distributed and technically advanced DDoS mitigation defence network, by early 2018.

In EMEA, Neustar has significantly expanded network capacity with an increase of 244 percent from 320 Gbps to more than 1 Tbps distributed across three nodes in Frankfurt, Amsterdam and London alone. APAC also has a new 200 Gbps node in Singapore, doubling the in-region capacity with additional large nodes soon following. By Q1 2018, the Neustar Global DDoS Defence Network will have 27 nodes distributed across all regions.

“We are changing the model from a handful of scrubbing centres to a globally scaled distributed model. This is a big departure from when I started the DDoS defence industry,” said Barrett Lyon, Head of Security Research and Development. “The capacity of our network will enable Neustar to offer unrivalled mitigation capability and network performance to keep our customers protected against any type of DDoS attack.”

Delivering In-Region Detection & Mitigation at Scale

The expansion of Neustar’s global DDoS mitigation network meets the scale and demands required to thwart modern DDoS attacks and deliver future-proof levels of protection due to its construction design, implementation and capacity. This fast-growing network of dedicated in-region mitigation centres will also enable Neustar to improve traffic routing performance for customers during attacks. With an increased number of local detection and mitigation centres, Neustar is able to redirect traffic to local scrubbing centres at the edge of the network, closer to the source. By scrubbing a customer’s web traffic and redelivering it locally rather than having to be backhauled to a scrubbing centre that may be partway around the world, Neustar offsets latency and restores network performance more quickly and effectively resulting in faster, more efficient in-region mitigation and greater customer value.

“The construction of our new DDoS network with regionalized nodes is a game-changer for our customers,” says Lyon. “We now have the capability to meet and defeat new attacks head-on, with localized scrubbing, so customers don’t feel the impact to their networks. What we are building is the proper evolution and sophistication of DDoS defence and it’s unlike anything that is available on the market today”.
