    It’s what no IT department wants to hear. Their employees, customers or business associates can’t access the company website because of denial-of-service attack.

    A DoS attack is an attempt to make a website unavailable either temporarily or indefinitely. One common method of attack involves saturating the target machine with external communications requests, such that it cannot respond to legitimate traffic, or responds so slowly as to be rendered effectively unavailable. While perpetrators of DoS attacks typically target sites or services hosted on high-profile web servers, really no company is immune.

    If your organization has been the target of a DoS attack, the result can be devastating costing the organization millions of dollars depending on how long the site is down, plus cause customer confidence to wane.

    Plus, with the recent transition to IPv6, many companies are wondering if they have missed something or left open the front door for a DoS attack. However, there are tools, processes and protocols you can put in place to make sure your organization is well protected against such threats.

    Join eWeek for this live, interactive eSeminar, sponsored by Verisign, and find out if your company is as protected from DoS threat as you believe you are. Attend this online-only event and learn what tools, protocols and processes you need to have in place to safeguard your website from such threats.
