Tracking the Malicious
Internet fraud and malicious software can shut down an entire gambling network
for a short period of time if the right defense mechanisms are not in place. It
is rather sad that it has come down to this, but online casino gambling
companies are increasingly turning to monitoring services and companies with
specific technology as a way to not only protect the company, but also the
gamblers. AsianLogic is the premiere internet gambling company operating in the
Asian-Pacific region – with numerous online casinos, poker, and betting sites
specifically designed for the Asian market. As the company continues to grow
though, the need for anti- Distributed Denial of Services (DDoS) technology has
become apparent; and to that end AsianLogic announced that it will now offer
online gamblers the protection of Webscreen technology.
Webscreen is based out of the United Kingdom and offers services that are
tailored to the online casino gambling companies. This latest deal with
AsianLogic – or more specifically with the IT division of AsianLogic, Bayview
Services is one of Webscreen’s largest contracts to-date. The Webscreen software
will be used to protect all of AsianLogic’s internet based gambling products:
betting sites, online casinos, and internet poker sites. And while all of the
sites will benefit from DDoS protection, the betting sector of AsianLogic’s
business will particularly benefit. Anti-DDoS technology specifically prevents
malicious software from clogging the company’s servers – this is particular
important when gamblers from all over the world are using AsianLogic betting
sites and servers to bet on major sporting events.
The current director at AsianLogic, Itamar Shamshins, observed why the company
chose the current cWebscreen acts as both an attack mitigation and a prevention
tool, giving us the confidence that our business has the maximum level of
protection backed by a highly responsive partner at the other end of the
telephone line should anything go wrong." The new contract marks an important
new start for AsianLogic as a major contender in the international online casino
gambling industry. |
