Major Online Stock Broker Turns to Verizon Business to Help Stop a Potentially Devastating DDoS Attack | 2008-04-01 | |
| Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks are often the weapon of choice for would-be criminals who target Internet sites. And, as a major online stock broker found out, the threat of a DDoS attack can be the perfect tool for extortion. For some time, a major online stock broker had been experiencing small DDoS attacks on a somewhat regular basis, but the disruptions to that point had been minimal. In an ominous development, the attacks suddenly became far more sophisticated in design and scale. Soon a notice arrived, demanding that a substantial monetary payment be made in order to stop the crippling attacks. Verizon Business immediately implemented its DoS Defense product to address the online broker's problems.

Marshal Case Study: Cawthron | 2008-01-10 | |
| Cawthron is New Zealand's largest, private, independent research organization. Cawthron staff increases led to the company's bandwidth consumption swelling to 50GB a month. Increased staff use of email and the Internet meant the organization was more exposed to email and web-borne threats, such as such as spam, phishing, spyware, viruses and DoS (Denial of Service) attacks. The threats themselves had also evolved and posed far greater security risks to organization. Cawthron selected MailMarshal SMTP and WebMarshal because of their highly granular content filtering capabilities, advanced control features such as spam categorization, antivirus and anti-spyware scanning technology and automated updated URL filter lists.
