TO BUSINESS, AND TECHNOLOGY EDITORS:
NexQloud Announces Availability of Cloud-Based DDoS Mitigation and
Uptime Management Platform for Proactive Website Protection
CAMPBELL, Calif., April 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NexQloud
(http://www.nexqloud.com) today announced general availability of its
cloud-based DDoS mitigation and uptime management platform, which
proactively protects websites from complex persistent cyber threats -
without sacrificing user experience. Using the industry's first Human
Identification engine, NexQloud solves the problems that plague
conventional mitigation platforms: annoying CAPTCHAs, obscure
visibility and control to slow pages or even inoperable websites.
Soft-launching four months ago with advanced volumetric and
application DDoS protection, NexQloud has since gained essential
features such as HTTPS Shield, Cloud Traffic Manager and an iOS
dashboard portal - to further bolster security and optimize website
performance in an increasingly cloud-dependent world.
Flash crowd control and various cloud performance optimization
features enable websites to load faster than ever, even when servers
are inundated with customer requests. With HTTPS Shield, NexQloud
provides those concerned with data privacy with an additional layer of
protection, while dramatically speeding up server processes consumed
by taxing SSL handshake authentications.
Built from the ground up to provide true business uptime, NexQloud was
invented to "minimize false positives and negatives in DDoS
mitigation," said Juniman Kasman, CEO of the security company. "The
key issues with current solutions are: lack of security experts, high
infrastructure costs and inadequate technology to cover end-to-end
threats, from L3 to L7 attacks. We think our platform will become the
de-facto standard."
Starting today, NexQloud and its suite of advanced DDoS mitigation,
website optimization and uptime management services will be available
to all. Automatic volumetric and application DDoS protection (up to
100 Mbps), along with Global CDN Optimization, SSL and mobile app
support can be experienced for free under NexQloud's Startup Plan.
The token-based Insurance Plan provides flexible protection for those
concerned with the possibility of a DDoS attack, while two Business
Plans offer cost-effective solutions tailored for most business needs.
Fully customizable in every aspect with a dedicated account manager,
professional services and consultation, NexQloud's Enterprise Plan
provides the ultimate security solution for companies who wish to
design their own defenses against next-generation DDoS attacks.
About NexQloud NexQloud is the world's newest and most user-friendly
DDoS mitigation and uptime management platform. Powered by the world's
first Human Identification engine, NexQloud offers fully automated
DDoS protection with no software or hardware changes required. In
addition to comprehensive volumetric and application DDoS mitigation,
NexQloud champions the "Identifying the Human" approach, effectively
addressing critical flaws in traditional mitigation systems. Botnets
requests are automatically denied, ensuring only humans through. Human
users with malicious intent are automatically rejected upon detection,
while other users are queued before a flash crowd forms and slows down
the website. It is the most effective way of managing cyber threats
without sacrificing user experience.
