NetScout announced it expanded its Arbor Cloud DDoS attack mitigation network to 16 scrubbing centers worldwide with the recent addition of a new Toronto facility. This network offers ISPs and enterprise customers more than 15 terabits per second Tbps of dedicated attack capacity. Canadian businesses and organizations will benefit from this new scrubbing center with lower latency because attack traffic takes less time to be diverted for mitigation and redirection to Canadian destinations. In addition, Canadian-originated and destined traffic and data remain within Canadian borders to help organizations comply with privacy and data sovereignty regulations at provincial and national levels. According to NetScout’s recent Threat Intelligence Report, Canada-based organizations experienced more than 130,000 DDoS attacks in the second half of 2023, with adversaries targeting financial services, education, insurance, healthcare, and government sectors. Arbor Cloud is a cloud-based managed DDoS attack mitigation service that can augment on-premises DDoS defense with cloud-based traffic scrubbing services that are tightly integrated via automated cloud signaling, providing comprehensive protection against complex multi-vector attacks. It is backed by the visibility and threat detection offered through Arbor Sightline, which works with the Arbor Threat Mitigation System, TMS, to surgically remove DDoS attack traffic.
