What's wrong with Other DDoS Solutions in the Market and why we are the Leading Solution?

Software Based Solutions

Under a typical DDoS, the number of packets is so huge that most software based solutions just crumble under the pressure. The amount of calculations and number crunching required to correlate DDoS and botnet attacks is humongous. If the CPU of software solutions and their memory bandwidth become a bottleneck, you will have false positives and legitimate traffic will be dropped.
 

IntruGuard solution is engineered around the best-of-the-breed re-configurable hardware. The processing power is manifold higher than the best-of-the-breed CPUs and network processors.

Due to a massively-parallel architecture, we can correlate millions of parameters available in network packets to figure out the source or cause of the DDoS and botnet attacks and stop them from going further.
 
TCP-dump/Wireshark based Forensic Organizations

These organizations claim forensic capabilities after the attacks have happened on your network. It is best to prepare to block attacks before they happen and block them as they happen using custom-hardware from IntruGuard. Do you think botnet attacks and DDoS attacks can be captured using tcpdump and wireshark? Go ahead if you think so.

 
IntruGuard's solution has a built-in detection and guarding capability. It is instantaneous and not after-the-fact. Attacks are stopped within 2 seconds.
 
Netflow Based Appliances

These appliances and the whole setup are so expensive and complex to deploy that only large ISPs can afford to install them. If you are not an ISP or your ISP does not protect you using these appliances, your next best bet is to protect using IntruGuard. Remember that most web-hosts leave your domain un-protected and open to the Internet.
 
IntruGuard solution is easy to deploy. It is effective and cost-effective. Actual installation in your network takes less than 1 hour. Due to its adaptiveness, it is a True Set It and Forget It solution.
 
Anti-DDoS Services

These vendors reroute your Internet traffic through one or more of their network centers and deliver clean traffic back to the customer. These services require that your confidential data flows through another network that you may not trust. This adds another dependency to your network uptime which is not in your network administrator's control.

 
With IntruGuard solution, the traffic remains in your data center. You have total control over the network and the traffic. You get the visibility into your network, and the protection from the attacks.
 

Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) Appliances and Unified Threat Management (UTM) Systems

For UTM and IPS appliances, DDoS mitigation is yet another feature. Their main focus is on header, state and content anomalies (based on known signatures). DDoS mitigation requires a ground-up approach in hardware (for performance reasons) as signatures are not known. Content is genuine but the intent is malicious. Moreover, most IPS and UTM appliances are gearerd for enterprise deployment. Facing the Internet is another ballgame. No one goes to your data-center with an infected laptop. Your enemies are out there on the Internet ready to flood you with bandwidth and botnet floods.

 
IntruGuard solutions are custom-designed for mitigating DDoS. DDoS is not an-afterthought at IntruGuard.
