Contract win with eXpansys
Webscreen Technology, part of Accumuli PLC, is pleased to announce that it has won a contract with eXpansys, the largest UK online store for smartphones, netbooks, laptops and accessories, to provide equipment to protect its network against Distributed Denial of Service (“DDoS”) attacks.
Webscreen’s DDoS protection equipment, the IP of which is 100% owned by Accumuli PLC, intelligently monitors and filters Web traffic at the network perimeter, maintaining bandwidth and connectivity for business critical services. The result is that legitimate and priority network users will be unaffected when the resources are under pressure during high activity periods or malicious DDoS attack.
The contract with eXpansys also includes maintenance and 24x7x365 technical support.
Peter Jones CBE, Non-executive Deputy Chairman of eXpansys, stated:
“eXpansys customers want the very best of everything, the best products first, the best pricing always and the best customer service 365 days a year.
“I also want the very best of everything for eXpansys and our valuable customers and that includes technology and 24 x 7 x 365 support and that’s what I get from Webscreen Technology, the very best DDoS mitigation technology and outstanding support.”
Will Palmer, managing director of Accumuli, commented:
“We are delighted that Webscreen has been chosen by eXpansys to provide DDoS security across its 60 global websites. Webscreen’s unique, heuristic DDoS technology provides eXpansys and Webscreen’s other global customers with the most advanced features and functionality to guarantee 24×7 uptime. This contract win is a strong endorsement of our world leading DDoS mitigation technology.”
