London, 20 August 2014 – TechNavio, a global tech-focused research firm has announced the publication of its market research report on the Global DDoS Prevention Market 2014-2018.

A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attack that disrupts the normal functioning of a network resource, making it unavailable to its intended users. With the increasing demand for DDoS prevention solutions from mobile and data center verticals, the Global DDoS Prevention market is expected to grow rapidly at a CAGR of 19.4 percent during the forecast period.

The new TechNavio report highlights the use of DDoS as a diversionary tactic. It emphasizes the importance of not allocating all the resources to short intense DDoS attacks and having an updated purpose-built solution to thwart attacks effectively. Some of the key end users highlighted in this report include:

  • Large Enterprises
  • Mobile Network Operators
  • SMBs

“DDoS attacks are increasingly used as a diversionary tactic. The cyber criminals employ small-scale DDoS attacks with the sole objective to distract security and networking personnel. While these professionals are involved in mitigating the attack, cyber criminals will attack the loose ends in the network with more advanced attacks and siphon off large amounts of cash and critical data,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio.
