Case Study: Tucknologies mitigates malware and DDoS attacks to protect client reputations with Liquid Web security and 24/7 support

Liquid Web Gets the Call to Mitigate Cyber Security Threats for Phone App Developer

Tucknologies, founded by Craig Tucker, builds smartphone apps and a flexible data-visualization platform that powers dashboards for sales, web traffic, and other critical business metrics. Because these services rely on powerful development, production, database, and web servers, frequent malware and DDoS attacks put client revenue and reputation at risk—most urgently the possibility of banking and insurance clients’ email servers being blacklisted—so CTO Brian Novak sought a more secure hosting partner.

Liquid Web provided 24/7/365 security services and hands-on support, blocking malicious IPs, tracking activity in server logs, removing injected scripts, and configuring environments (including support for older client software). The result: attacks were mitigated, a compromised site was salvaged, client deliverability and reputation were preserved, and Tucknologies regained the confidence and bandwidth to focus on new development.
