Sports Websites and Crowd Control at Virtual Stadiums

Cricket, Baseball, Football, Hockey and all such games are extremely popular. During a popular event, it is easy for users to crowd your website.

When crowding happens at your website, your servers are overloaded and the errors that they see on their end will lead them to give up coming to your website next time.

Similar to a checkpoint at stadium where persons/gates control the access, IntruGuard appliances act as gatekeepers to limit access to the levels your servers can support.

Key Features of IntruGuard IG200/2000 for Crowd Control:

• Hardware based crowd control
• Limit number of concurrent connections/source IP address
• Limit number of concurrent connections/destination IP address
• Limit number of connection attempts/second
• Segregate e-commerce purchases from viewing using virtual pipes.
