(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Security and trust solutions provider Verisign Inc. (www.verisigninc.com) announced on Monday that it has launched the Verisign Uptime Bundle, a package of services that combines distributed denial of service attack protection with VeriSign’s DNS hosting and threat intelligence services, as a single solution.
The package is built around notions of performance, security and availability, seeking to deliver them for email, websites and critical network services.
Verisign’s managed DNS service delivers DNS resolution with a 100 percent SLA. The Verisign Internet Defense Network provides protection from DDoS attacks by detecting and filtering malicious traffic. The company’s iDefense Security Intelligence Services provides constant access to a network of cyber intelligence related to vulnerabilities, malicious code and other threats.
“Businesses can no longer rely on a single line of defense to ensure the availability of web sites and applications under all conditions,” says Ben Petro, senior vice president of the Verisign Network Intelligence and Availability business, quoted in the press release. “Our multi-layered solution offers the best way to detect and disarm an attack before substantial losses occur. With the Verisign Uptime Bundle, we’re making it easier to maintain availability with world-class services at a price that many competitors charge for DNS hosting alone.”
The bundle is offered in four pricing and service packages, designed to meet the needs of a range of organizations, starting at $495 per month for a package that supports 100 domains, 1,000 resource records and up to 50 million DNS queries per month.
Verisign says it is conducting a free webinar on March 30 to offer more information on the service.
