Abstract :
Secure delivery networks can help prevent or mitigate the most common attacks against mission-critical websites. A case study from a leading provider of content delivery services illustrates one such network´s operation and effectiveness. The Web extra at https://youtu.be/4FRRI0aJLQM is an overview of the evolving threat landscape with Akamai Director of Web Security Solutions Product Marketing, Dan Shugrue. Dan also shares how Akamai´s Kona Site Defender service handles the increasing frequency, volume and sophistication of Web attacks with a unique architecture that is always on and doesn´t degrade performance.
