NSFOCUS, a global provider of DDoS mitigation solutions and services announced today that it has been included in Gartner's Competitive Landscape: DDoS Mitigation Solutions report.

Because of the significant increase in the complexity, size and frequency of DDoS attacks, the necessity for DDoS mitigation has never been stronger:

• Gartner description of the DDoS mitigation market - "The market for distributed denial of service (DDoS) mitigation consists of the infrastructure and service providers (collectively referred to as DDoS mitigation solution providers) that assist organizations to drop or clean network traffic that is meant to disrupt networks, servers or applications."
