RE: DDoS mitigation recommendations

I am new to this mailing list - this should be a response to an already
started thread that I cannot see:

IntelliguardIT has a new class of network appliance that installs inline
(layer 2 appliance). It has no impact on current network capacity and
automatically manages flash crowds gracefully.

To date the company has over-invested in technology and under-invested in
sales and marketing. That is changing now: the company is moving to The Bay
Area.

As a testament to this over-investment we have a few customers in Asia who
had CiscoGuard and/or Arbor Network solutions deployed - they were failing!
IntelliGuard's solution solved their DDoS problems.

If you would like to learn more please contact me directly (the
IntelliGuardIT website is quite dated at this stage.

Thanks,

Ha, that's great. When will vendors learn that blatant and subtle ads tick
this group of people off and make us want to NOT buy their products. I don't
mind vendors hanging out on this list as some of them are useful posters, but
cut out all the marketing junk and present "just the facts". It is
interesting to see Cisco dropping this product though since all their CCDA
materials seem to push a loaded 6500 with these options.

Hate to say this, but that change is hardly a selling point to this crowd. :wink:

Prove it. As far as I can tell, DDoS mitigation appliances are mostly
smoke and mirrors, and I used to work for an IDS vendor.

LOL.

Can you cite these clients?
