Case Study: Zacks Investment Research achieves uninterrupted uptime and real-time DDoS protection with Corero’s First Line of Defense

Sound Investment: Zacks Investment Research Chooses Corero as its First Line of Defense

Zacks Investment Research, a respected provider of investment guidance and creator of the Zacks Rank, needed to ensure its website, proprietary research and customer data remained available and uncompromised. After repeated incidents — including a five‑hour DDoS attack and a peripheral‑server intrusion — the firm sought stronger, preventive defenses to protect uptime, data integrity and customer trust.

Zacks selected Corero’s First Line of Defense after a vendor bake‑off for its effectiveness, ease of deployment and visibility. Corero’s in‑line solution blocks network‑ and application‑layer DDoS, malware and exploit attempts in real time, providing clear attack visibility, preventing successful intrusions and maintaining continuous uptime.
