Metro Optic LTD, partners with DOSarrest Internet Security to offer customers DDoS Protection services.

DOSarrest announced today that Metro Optic, one of Montreal’s largest independent providers of dark fiber and business Internet connectivity will offer DOSarrest’s DDoS protection services to all of their customers. Metro Optic will be able to provision, configure and monitor any customer in a matter of minutes by using DOSarrest’s Security Services(DSS) access panel. This enables any customer to have virtually immediate mitigation of any and all DoS attacks or subscribe to their always on service which provides continuous protection for any website.

Daniel Legault president of Metro Optic, states “We have a number of customers already using their services and they are all very happy with it. As all of our customers are involved with Internet ecommerce, we needed a solution to this problem and this is a good one”

“Our metro fiber network services is spread out over 1,000KM in the city and protecting every website on it, would be cost prohibitive. Given Dosarrest’s real-time management software it makes a lot of sense to us, to outsource this requirement”

DOSarrest’s GM, Mark Teolis says “We are excited to have Metro Optic as a partner, one who understands the problems DDoS can cause for an ecommerce website as well as their own network. I have watched Metro Optic grow over the last 10 years and now has a very impressive customer base, including more than a few fortune 100’s”

“Our service should give them an added edge over their competition”
