Assure Security and Availability of Critical Communications Infrastructure

Businesses increasingly rely on the Internet to sell products and services. Yet, those that do, lack transparency into Internet connectivity problems and security breaches beyond their own firewall. Any company that conducts business on the Internet is exposed to unseen risks – downtime, hijacking, wholesale traffic interruption – which are hard to understand, measure and resolve. With no single authoritative source of who is doing what, companies need an awareness of significant Internet events and activity in order to assure reliable and secure Internet operations.

Governments and government agencies face unique challenges in assuring the uninterrupted operation of Internet-based telecommunications services. Floods and earthquakes, power grid failures and malicious activity such as physical damage or cyber attack, can significantly degrade Internet usability. As the Internet is a common communication medium across components of critical infrastructure sectors, network failures within any sector many lead to a broader systematic failure or attack. Being able to recognize such failures and proactively block or mitigate the negative effects is critical to government operations.
