Cyber Security Trends and Challenges for 2012

The severity, volume, and even the sophistication of cyber attacks is increasing, with very expensive and sometimes devastating results. Millions of records are lost or stolen, identities at risk and systems down for hours or days, just to name a few. Fortunately, there are ways to keep your systems up – and services to keep your security measures as far ahead of the bad guys as possible. VeriSign’s cloud-based DDoS protection services provides the infrastructure that runs the DOT COM and DOT NET top-level domains – which are probably the TLDs that your organizations’ web sites operate under. And in the decade-plus that Verisign has been charged with keeping those TLDs and all the domains that rely on them up and running, they haven’t suffered a single DDoS outage.
