It helps us a lot in terms of attacks, volumetric attacks, DDoS attacks, etc. It is very useful in that it also anticipates potential attackers. In addition, it helps us to automate, so we do not always have to be aware of alerts. It automatically blocks the types of attacks that occur on a daily basis.
It gives us peace of mind with its automation because DefensePro already has attacks in its knowledge base. It stops attacks and anticipates other attacks.
DefensePro is very important because the availability of our services is crucial. With the prevalence of denial-of-service attacks, volumetric attacks, it's vital for us to count on DefensePro to prevent them. It ensures we have a robust response to the many threats and attacks that arise on a daily basis. We have the availability of services that our clients need when they need them. That is the greatest benefit for us.
Since we started using DefensePro, we have not had problems with the availability of our service. It has helped mitigate the attacks that have been attempted. So far, we have not had an incident associated with denial of service issues.
Also, in the investigations we have done into verifying reports, we have seen that they are generally real denial-of-service attacks. The false-positive rate is not high. It has reduced false positives by more than 90 percent.
We realized these benefits almost immediately. As soon as we installed DefensePro, it began to deflect all the attacks that were occurring. We started seeing alerts, especially for DDoS attacks.
