The Challenge

QuadraNet, a full-service data center provider, was facing an increasing frequency and virulence of DDoS attacks. Their previous security solution identified network threats by observing traffic patterns and volume, null-routing affected customer IP space when attacks exceeded the customer’s uplink capacity. This resulted in downtime for targeted customers. QuadraNet needed an automated DDoS attack mitigation system that could eliminate downtime and keep customers running without disruption. They sought a solution that could protect customers quickly, effectively, and with extremely low false-positive rates.

About The Customer

QuadraNet is a full-service data center provider headquartered in Los Angeles, California. The company began as a telecommunications company in 2001 and evolved into offering colocation, dedicated servers, cluster management, and complex hosting solutions. QuadraNet is one of the largest providers in Los Angeles for dedicated servers, colocation, cloud hosting, and bandwidth. The company has expanded its data center footprint throughout the United States with additional locations in Dallas, Miami, and Atlanta.

The Solution

QuadraNet chose Radware’s Attack Mitigation System (AMS) as their solution. AMS is a real-time network and application security solution that protects the application infrastructure against network and application downtime, application vulnerability exploitation, malware spread, information theft, web service attacks, and web defacement. Its set of patented technologies protects against the most advanced internet-borne cyber-attacks and extends the “network” of attack detection and mitigation capabilities beyond the data center. With AMS, QuadraNet can protect its clients from service level disruption as a result of increasing DDoS attacks.

Operational Impact

QuadraNet's customers are able to stay online and no longer need to be null-routed during a DDoS attack.
Attacked customers typically don’t even realize they are under attack.
QuadraNet's staff is now equipped with powerful tools to protect its business, customers’ businesses and users from growing cyber security threats.
