DDoS Protection is Now Available on the East Coast through r00t-Services.net

Looking to provide the lowest latency and highest performance possible to our U.S. customers, we know that keeping our networks located closer to our customers and their visitors allows us to provide the best and fastest protection possible.

r00t-Services.net recently expanded its top quality anti DDoS solutions to the East Coast of the United States, bringing its powerful and high quality DDoS mitigation services to Washington D.C. and other areas. After operating in Europe for about a year and offering top tier protection against any type of attack on websites, mail servers, Bitcoin mining pools, game servers, and more, r00t-Services.net decided to place a second PoP that is located on the East Coast. Because of new threats like NTP-based DrDoS and compromised Kloxo installs, powerful DDoS protection is now more crucial than ever.

As a spokesperson from the company noted, the timing of the expansion to the East Coast was ideal. Due to the unfortunate increase in frequency and severity of DDoS attacks in recent years, anti DDoS solutions and DDoS protection like what is provided by r00t-Services.net have become a key part of successfully operating any online service. This is because DDoS attacks can be incredibly damaging and can virtually bring a service to a total halt, causing downtime and compromising security. Despite the danger of potential DDoS attacks, many hosting providers are unable to adequately protect against them or mitigate damage.

“Looking to provide the lowest latency and highest performance possible to our U.S. customers, we know that keeping our networks located closer to our customers and their visitors allows us to provide the best and fastest protection possible,” the spokesperson noted, adding that the East Coast is an excellent connectivity point for both the U.S. and Europe, making it ideal for services or websites that target both regions.

Thanks to their effective block DDoS solutions from r00t-Services.net, people can stay with their hosting provider and protect their server with remote DDoS protection without transferring any data. DDoS mitigation provided by a r00t-Services.net facility takes place using state-of-the-art hardware from RioRey and a high-performance reverse proxy cluster. As the company spokesperson noted, the new proxy systems are housed inside an Equinix facility and a huge 100Gbps of upstream bandwidth is dedicated to mitigating DDoS attacks. Thanks to its competitive pricing, dedication to outstanding customer service, and the most know-how, r00t-Services.net’s anti DDoS solutions come with instant setup and can even protect against the newest types of DDoS attacks that are just being discovered.

“Who wouldn’t love to combine the amazing customer service and spectacular server security of an expensive DDoS mitigation service with the cost of a bargain service?” the company spokesperson asked, adding that r00t-Services.net started as a response to this dilemma. While traditionally, paying less for DDoS protection often meant sacrificing reliability and more and more downtime, r00t-Services.net is cost-effective, affordable, and dependable with an exceptional 99.9 percent uptime across all of its services and a network that is monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

BTC-E Reports DDOS Attack

Bitcoin exchange BTE-C has reported via its official Twitter account that it is, at this time, experiencing a DDOS (distributed denial of service) attack that may or may not be affecting all services. The uncertainty comes from the lack of explanation from BTC-E. The tweet, which only reads "DDos #btce" (pictured above), seemingly speaks for itself, however. Bitcoin exchanges are often targets of DDOS attacks, but many have learned to deal with these situations as a result of being victims multiple times (see Mt. Gox).
