Site Acceleration & Firewall

Mission Critical Content Delivery Network &
Global Firewall Service

[Only available with the “Extreme” Website System]

Even though you may visualize in your mind your customer base is closer to home and where you’re physically located, global threats of all kinds are no respecter of geography and will threaten your good name online from all parts of the globe 24hrs a day, seven days a week, and each year the threat grows in numbers and sophistication.

For this reason InsuredCo automatically adds state-of-the-art security and performance acceleration to all the “Extreme” system websites we produce and maintain. To achieve this your website’s traffic is seamlessly routed through globally-distributed network of high-powered servers. Incoming traffic is intelligently profiled in real-time, blocking even the latest web threats: from sophisticated attacks to scrapers, malicious bots, intruding spammers and thwarting multi-Gigabit DDoS attacks. Meanwhile, outgoing site traffic is accelerated and optimized using a global content delivery network (CDN), for faster load times, keeping welcome visitors speeding through your site no matter their location or hardware.

So while other development firms may offer CDN services, they typically fail the test when it comes to providing world-class site protection at the same time, and that’s just one important difference in how we view your business and the challenges which must be met.


Global Content Deliver Network (CDN) & Website Optimizer

Keeping your site running at top speed is mission-critical. Good performance ensures happy users and returning business. This unique technology optimizes your site’s loading and navigation processes, without compromising anything. Increases your website speed by both getting your site’s content physically closer to visitors (via the Content Delivery Network) and by ensuring that every page renders as fast and efficiently as possible regardless of the visitors device or location using industry best practices, such as caching, compression and connection pooling with innovative techniques such as dynamic content caching and media optimization to take your web site’s performance to the next level.

Extensive Security Capabilities Include:

Bad Bot Blocking: With an average of 50% of websites’ traffic being non-human, you do not want to leave the “front door” of your website open. Your website can suffer from bad bots and attacks as spammers, vulnerability scanners, content theft, fake form submissions, etc. and slow performance due to load. Bot Access rules allow the system to control which bots can access your web site. There are three types of bots:

circle1 Good Bots
These are bots such as legitimate search engine bots or other legitimate service which are operated by well-known and commonly-used services. The client classification engine identifies these bots and allows them to access your site without delay.
2
circle1 Bad Bots
These include spammers, SQL Injection worms and vulnerability scanners and other malicious bots that are positively identified by the collaborative network.
circle1 Suspected Bots
In many cases, these bots are used by service providers that have not yet been classified by the classification engine. In other cases these could be browsers behind proxies or obfuscation devices that were misclassified. In these instances the system simply requires an additional CAPTCHA security check for the suspected bot, so only human visitors can pass.
