"We are seeing a trend in enterprises today where hackers are taking advantage of old-school technologies like DDoS attacks and bringing them into the modern age, using them as part of a larger advanced threat scenario," he says.

In a video interview at Information Security Media Group's recent Fraud and Data Breach Summit in San Francisco, Blaho:

  • Stresses the importance of a more holistic approach to security;
  • Describes the company's new Arbor Spectrum solution;
  • Outlines how Arbor Networks serves the financial services sector, service providers, and the online gaming industry, among other sectors.

Blaho is market insights leader at Arbor Networks.
