Firewall Service provides security and protection to dedicated and managed servers.
San Diego, California – September 21, 2004 - Aplus.Net (www.aplus.net), the leading Internet presence and web hosting provider to small and medium-sized businesses (SMB), announced today the availability of a comprehensive Firewall Service to protect dedicated and managed servers from malicious users and attacks. The hardware-based Firewall Service is available immediately to dedicated or managed server customers.
Aplus.Net’s new Firewall Service provides general protection, which covers IP spoofing, and URL length checking, for example, and denial of service attack protection, which prevents SYN Flood, Ping Storm, Fraggle, and WinNuke breaches. Fast firewall performance of up to 20 Gbps allows for fighting massive attacks. Support is provided for multiple, customizable security zones on any port, each with its own unique security policy. The hardware based firewall service by Aplus.Net is much stronger, faster and many times more efficient than most software firewalls. Furthermore, hardware based firewalls do not load the CPU of the server and they stop attacks before they ever reach your server.
“Cyber attacks are becoming more frequent and we are there for our customers to help with our new firewall service.” said Ivan Vachovsky, Chief Executive Officer of Aplus.Net.
Aplus.Net focuses on providing high-quality, specialized service plans and completely integrated, cost-effective internet solutions for SMBs. Firewall Service is the first addition to the company’s line of Advanced Business Service solutions for dedicated and managed server customers. In addition to improving server efficiency and protecting data, the new services were implemented to help customers meet goals that facilitate their company’s growth and contribute to business success.
