ServerOrigin Off-Network Status

Tag: ethproxy protection

ServerOrigin Communications released an update for ethProxy DDoS mitigation. More than 3 months of comparison testing shows that ethProxy provides the most accurate DDoS protection in the history of the market.

NEW YORK, Aug. 3 /PRNewswire/ — ServerOrigin Communications (http://www.serverorigin.com) is releasing the newest update for its ethProxy DDoS mitigation service. This update will enable ethProxy to be the first self-learning denial-of-service system on the market, making this the most advanced DDoS protection service available anywhere.

“This is the first time in the mitigation world where a product can be enabled on a site and learn the difference between good and bad traffic coming into a website,” ServerOrigin CEO Kevin Hatfield said. “Until now, providers rely on appliances or custom software which is based on hard limits and thresholds. This update changes the way the consumer should look at protection. We have successfully built a product which will determine anomalies based on normal traffic flow with strictly dynamic rulesets.”

Set up to use ethProxy is easy. Users simply point their domain at the IP Address provided by ServerOrigin Communications. Traffic is then filtered and routed back to the user. The user’s IP will be hidden and guarded behind the proxy solution to filter any malicious traffic before it reaches their server. Only clean, legitimate traffic will be allowed to reach the user’s web site.

“We have a multi-million dollar investment and hundreds of thousands of man-hours building out this solution. We are hands-down, the best,” Hatfield said. “If I didn’t believe it, we would likely be reselling a competitors product or not be in business at all. Instead, we are continually seeing growth of more than 200% each fiscal year in a time where the economy is unstable and many online providers are closing up shop. I believe it speaks directly to our dedication and quality that we bring to the table.”

Along with AnyCast DNS services through a partnership with DNSMadeEasy earlier in the year, the ethProxy service already stands as the giant in the business with fully automated datacenter failover and redundancy across multiple points across the United States, including Seattle, Dallas and Washington, DC. It also has the largest service level agreement from any DDoS mitigation provider, now at a 99.998% guarantee.

ethProxy – Gets some Updates!

ethProxy DDoS Protection brought to you by ServerOrigin.Com has introduced a major release upgrade to our filtering proxies!

04:15PM CDT:

As of approximately 04:15PM CDT we introduced many changes to the ethProxy product that we have been working on for months now. The changes from today include:

- Reduced possibility of false positives. Chance of false positives should be 1/20,000
- SYN Attack filtering updates - Several modifications directly related to how we identify and block DDoS SYN floods. Identification time has dropped rapidly and the ability to buffer such floods until the identification and initial block is nearly immediate.
- HUGE INCREASE IN SPEED!  We have introduced new algorithms for caching static/dynamic website content. Current customers will likely see between a 50%-110% increase in loading speeds. 
- Entirely new method of identifying UDP floods with much less resources. No delay should be seen on attacks as large as 10Gbps+.
- MAJOR UPDATE: Major update to the ethProxy engine. Faster request handling of HTTP/SSL requests as well as additional modules for filtering EMAIL. That's right, we can now filter EMAIL PORT attacks and proxy good traffic!
- Many many minor changes not worth listing here... 

Please feel free to send feedback to support@ethproxy.com

Thanks so much!

ServerOrigin.Com (10/31/2009) has signed a contract with DNSMadeEasy (http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com ) for all ethProxy customers. DNSMadeEasy has been in business since early 2003 with an unprecedented 100% uptime for the past 6+ years. ethProxy customers now have the option of utilizing our managed DNS solution hosted by DNSMadeEasy. This will include automated DNS failover between our two datacenters. This will provide for full redundancy, from a proxy standpoint, in case of a datacenter failure. This service is FREE of charge to all ethProxy subscribers. We will setup an alternate to your primary proxy and in the event of failure all services will roll to the alternate datacenter. Failover is automatically detected in under 10 minutes, full traffic failover (worldwide) will occur within 60 minutes. More than 97% of the world’s traffic would roll to the alternate datacenter within 30 minutes of the initial failure.
Once the primary location comes back online, the DNSMadeEasy service will monitor the service for up to a configurable amount of time before reconfiguring DNS back to primary. Your customers will likely never experience an outage longer than 30 minutes with a full datacenter failure.
If you would like to utilize our DNS failover services, please submit a ticket to support. We will require you moving your site to designated nameservers we provide. Any additional custom records you’d like added, just add those in the ticket. We will have it configured and confirm when it is ready for you to move your domain to our nameservers. DNSMadeEasy will provide more than 40 different nameserver locations available worldwide and complete redundancy in more than 30 datacenters. We are *the first* proxy DDoS protection service to offer a full-datacenter failover solution. This service comes with a 100% uptime Service Level Agreement.
Please let us know if you have any questions, we’ll be happy to assist.
