TORONTO – AT&T announced Tuesday that it has expanded its security service Network-Based Firewall into Canada, following the introduction last year of Internet Protect.
Network-Based Firewall is a security solution that allows companies to prevent unauthorized entry onto corporate networks, without the expense of premises-based equipment. The network-based security devices reside in AT&T’s Internet Data Centre (IDC) to reduce a client’s capital expenditure, risk of technological obsolescence and need for additional staff members.
As well, Distributed Denial of Service Defence (DDoS) is now available in Canada to AT&T Internet Protect customers. It blocks malicious attacks in real-time and mitigates traffic to ensure seamless recovery and operations.
