A Megaport Case Study
Redshield, a provider of managed web application security, faced the challenge of protecting customer web apps without relying on vulnerable Internet Service Provider (ISP) links. During cyberattacks like DDoS, these links could become congested, blocking Redshield's crucial access to customer servers and putting app performance and security at risk. They needed a dedicated connection solution to bypass the public internet.
The solution was implemented using Megaport's platform. By utilizing Megaport's virtual cross connects (VXCs) and Internet Exchange, Redshield established direct, private connections to customer data centers. This provided reliable, protected access that is resistant to internet-based attacks, ensuring high availability during traffic surges and helping customers meet strict security and compliance regulations. Megaport's scalable bandwidth also allows Redshield to flex capacity as needed.
