-- Megaport (ASX:MP1) launched Megaport Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Protection designed for filtering malicious traffic directly within the Megaport network, according to a Wednesday statement from company.
The new feature integrates real-time traffic filtering into the company's internet service to reduce latency, avoid external scrubbing, and maintain uptime during attacks, the company said.
In addition, the new capability enables self-service deployment in under a minute, applying protection at the internet protocol and host level so only harmful traffic is blocked.
It also offers simplified, capacity-based pricing and automated protection profiles that help distinguish attacks from legitimate traffic surges, the company said.
The company's shares rose around 3% in recent Wednesday trade.
