Mu Dynamics Introduces New DoS Module(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Mu Dynamics has announced Denial of Service (DoS) Module for the Mu-4000 appliance. According to the company, the Mu solution ensures service providers can identify and eliminate service, application and network downtime caused by DoS and Distributed DoS attacks. Studies from Network Strategy Partners (NSP) and others put the cost of downtime for a large service provider network in excess of $100,000 per hour. Mu Dynamics noted that this enables Mu to deliver additional proactive service assurance options that result in a high return on investment for network operators and equipment vendors. The ability to minimize service/network downtime accelerates the rollout of more services. "The proactive service assurance provided by Mu is cost-justified in a single release cycle," says Ir. Bilpen Nainggolan, senior manager research & development of network management at Telkom RDC Indonesia. "Our voice, video and data service customers count on Telkom RDC Indonesia to quickly roll out new and enhanced IP-based services that are always available and highly resilient. The inherent and growing complexity of VoIP and IPTV services makes it increasingly important to ensure high availability and security. For Telkom RDC Indonesia, Mu's unique solution is essential for reliably provisioning new services more rapidly and with greater confidence to build customer satisfaction." "Our customers require high-performance security products to be highly resistant to either inadvertent or malicious DoS weaknesses," said Michael Frendo, senior vice president, high-end security systems, Juniper Networks. "Mu helps our product development teams to ensure that customer's services using Juniper-based infrastructure are fast, reliable and secure ultimately reducing costly application downtime."
