Re: Re: DDoS protection

Hi,

Thanks for your replies.

Noted the points raised by Jacint and Kelly Keeton. I appreciate that.

May I be kind to seek an opinion/ arguments suggesting if the In-house ap=
pliances are more "intelligent" thwarting the application level DOS/ DDoS=
 attacks as compared to ISP provided DOS protection wherein it may even f=
ail to detect them. or if there are other benefits owning an In-house pro=
duct?

As far as Cons are concerned, I feel that the appliance may add some late=
ncy which may create issues wherein a latency of milliseconds count.

Although we're small, We're an organization playing with ($,=A5,=80,=A3) =
exchanges and heavily regulated by the Government.

Thanks,
KT
