In a groundbreaking development in cybersecurity technology, Gcore, the global edge AI, cloud, network, and security solutions provider, has unveiled its latest innovation – Super Transit. This cutting-edge feature is specifically designed to combat Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks while simultaneously enhancing the speed and efficiency of connectivity for enterprises.
The unveiling of Super Transit comes at a time when organizations worldwide are grappling with a 56% year-on-year increase in high-volume, complex DDoS attacks. These attacks have wreaked havoc on operations, increased latency, and compromised network security, creating a pressing need for advanced solutions to mitigate such threats. Traditional DDoS protection measures often involve costly and complex integrations, making them inaccessible to many businesses. However, with Super Transit, Gcore aims to level the playing field by offering this feature as part of its comprehensive DDoS Protection Suite.
Super Transit harnesses the power of the Gcore global network, which boasts over 180 points of presence (PoPs), to automatically route traffic through its Anycast backbone. This sophisticated system enables the real-time detection, filtering, and mitigation of malicious traffic, effectively separating it from legitimate traffic. As a result, users can enjoy uninterrupted connectivity even during DDoS attacks, ensuring a stable, secure, and high-speed experience.
One of the key differentiators of Gcore Super Transit is its real-time DDoS threat mitigation capability. By detecting and blocking malicious traffic at the nearest Gcore PoP, the impact on performance is minimized, safeguarding user networks from potential disruptions. Additionally, the feature offers global-scale protection against DDoS attacks of any size, with a total filtering network capacity exceeding 200 Tbps.
Moreover, Super Transit ensures consistent performance by filtering traffic at the edge and routing legitimate traffic through the optimal path within Gcore’s high-performance backbone. This eliminates the need for unnecessary rerouting to external scrubbing centers and reduces latency, enhancing the overall user experience.
Andrey Slastenov, Head of Security at Gcore, hailed the launch of Super Transit as a major milestone for the company. He emphasized the importance of fast, worldwide access to DDoS protection services, highlighting the real-time intelligent data analysis and filtering capabilities that underpin Super Transit. These capabilities, according to Slastenov, are crucial for mitigating latency and outages that can significantly impact user experience and business success.
