The increase in Distributed Denial of Services attacks on online companies has prompted one security company to publish an informative article on its website.
Gold Security reveals that online gambling sites, where the majority of transactions happen in real time, are high on the risk scale as a loss of as much as $40,000 could occur in an hour.
Chief executive Anthony Khamsei compared the potential damage to online gambling sites’ traffic to the effects of being hit by Black Friday several times per year.
Gold Security’s full article is available here.

DDoS Attacks are a real threat, no doubt about it. I believe that some of the login difficulties and deposit difficulties that I have had at several casinos could be contributed to a DDoS attack. Nonetheless, this Gold Security is a business that protects internet sites from DDoS attacks, if you purchase their product. Although this article is informative, online gambling sites should, look into all alternative measures to protect themselves and not be bullied by the information of one security provider.
