Partner Michael Overly was quoted in the CSO article, “DDoS explained: How distributed denial of service attacks are evolving.”
The article examined how DDoS attacks are evolving and how they still present a real threat to businesses.
This is also changing the impact of DDoS attacks on organizations and expanding their risk. “Businesses are no longer merely concerned with DDoS attacks on themselves, but attacks on the vast number of business partners, vendors, and suppliers on whom those businesses rely,” Overly said. “One of the oldest adages in security is that a business is only as secure as its weakest link. In today’s environment (as evidenced by recent breaches), that weakest link can be, and frequently is, one of the third parties,” he says.
