There is no doubt that web attacks and retribution campaigns are on the rise, and they have become more frequent, more random and more extreme. DDoS attacks are the method of choice by many hackers, but as quickly as your company innovates online – the types of attacks will evolve. Robust protection against these and other attacks is inherent to the way the Akamai Intelligent Platform is built. Its resilient architecture designed to service massive loads of legitimate web traffic – providing a solid foundation upon which to subsequently absorb, identify and block threats. The distributed nature of the platform stops attacks at the edge, before they ever have the chance to "gang up" on centralized protection solutions. Even as attackers attempt to exploit vulnerabilities at the application layer, bypassing most legacy security controls, Akamai mounts multilayered defenses including a distributed web application firewall; scaling where needed to absorb and deflect malicious attacks. From the infamous "ILOVEYOU" virus dating back ten years, to the most recent large scale DDoS attacks conjured by the "Hacktivist" community, Akamai Security Solutions have held solid, keeping the world's leading online businesses up and running – even in the face of repeated assaults. On this page you'll find three recent examples of customers who were targeted by these punishing attacks – and how Akamai prevented them from disrupting their businesses. Having your online operations brought down by a malicious attack can cost businesses up to $100,000 per hour and can significantly damage the dependability of a brand. Choosing the right partner to protect your infrastructure is clearly an important decision. Akamai Security Solutions seamlessly augment and enhance your existing security protections, extending your perimeter of defense to the edge of the Internet. Fortunately, as simply as "chaotic actors" can attack your web site, it's just as simple to prevent attacks by implementing Akamai Security Solutions.
