Neustar’s industry leading DDoS mitigation network.
Neustar, based in Sterling, Virginia, is a trusted, neutral
provider of real-time information services and security solutions
to protect against the serious threat of expanding Distributed
Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. As DDoS attacks have become more
prominent, Neustar’s DDoS service has become an important component
to protect an organization’s mission-critical digital
infrastructure.
“As a global leader in digital content delivery, Limelight is
excited to be working with Neustar to help them build out the
world’s largest DDoS mitigation network,” said Robert Lento, chief

world. We believe with Neustar’s industry knowledge and
Limelight’s network capabilities, we will be able to uniquely
address the market needs. This announcement gives us greater
confidence in our ability to meet or exceed analysts’ expectations
for the quarter and the full year.”
“As DDoS attacks have become increasingly powerful and
prevalent, it is critical for organizations to invest in a solution
that can outpace its attackers. We selected Limelight based on
their impressive global infrastructure, technology and people. The
relationship demonstrates our joint commitment to securely manage,
distribute and protect digital content distribution around the
world,” said Lisa Hook, chief executive officer at Neustar.

About Neustar
Every day, the world generates roughly 2.5 quadrillion bits of
data. Neustar (NYSE:NSR) isolates certain elements and analyzes,
simplifies and edits them to make precise and valuable decisions
that drive results. As one of the few companies capable of knowing
with certainty who is on the other end of every interaction, we’re
trusted by the world’s great brands to make critical decisions some
20 billion times a day. We help marketers send timely and relevant
messages to the right people. Because we can authoritatively tell a
client exactly who is calling or connecting with them, we make
critical realtime responses possible. And the same comprehensive
information that enables our clients to direct and manage orders
also stops attackers. We know when someone isn’t who they claim to
be, which helps stop fraud and denial of service before they’re a
problem. Because we’re also an experienced manager of some of the
world’s most complex databases, we help clients control their
online identity, registering and protecting their domain name, and
routing traffic to the correct network address. By linking the most
essential information with the people who depend on it, we provide
more than 12,000 clients worldwide with decisions—not just data.
