Prolexic Technologies, the global leader in Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection services, today announced that it mitigated a significant attack last week that targeted the web site of Santa Claus. Fortunately, Prolexic's mitigation network, the world's largest at over 375 Gbps, was able to overcome the massive Layer 3 attack.
Seeking to enhance operating efficiencies, Santa is increasingly reliant on an extensive e-Commerce site to process gift requests. "Sending Christmas lists to the North Pole by mail is so 1800s," said Inna Openslae, Global Fulfillment Director.
