Case Study: Hyve achieves robust DDoS protection and uninterrupted cloud hosting with Corero's First Line of Defense

Corero's First Line of Defense Gives Hyve a Strategic Advantage Among UK Hosted Service Providers

Hyve is a leading UK provider of mission-critical cloud hosting serving clients across industries from finance to healthcare. As customer-managed applications introduced security gaps and attackers increasingly used both volumetric and “low-and-slow” application-layer DDoS tactics, Hyve needed a way to protect every tenant in its infrastructure and ensure uninterrupted availability without relying solely on customers’ controls.

Hyve deployed Corero’s First Line of Defense as an on‑premise, inline perimeter filter ahead of its firewalls, blocking DDoS, zero‑day and server-targeted attacks while allowing legitimate traffic through with no noticeable latency. The solution has repelled numerous attacks, enabled per-client logging and portal reporting, reduced cost compared with cloud remediation, and given Hyve a measurable security advantage and new revenue-generating service capabilities.
