At an average of 9000 a day in 2021, Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks worldwide were up around 30% on 2020, with the UK suffering the third highest behind the USA and France. In October 2021 Commscouncil.uk reported sustained attacks on several of their members operating VOIP networks. DDoS and Ransomware attacks are the biggest threat to network operators and their customers.
Jola recently built a fully redundant, highly scalable IP edge network specifically designed to deliver high performance and secure mobile data services. Jola announced today that their partners’ critical services now run over the Cloudflare network. Cloudflare’s 121 Tbps worldwide network blocks an average of 86 billion threats per day, including some of the largest DDoS attacks in history.
Adrian Sunderland, CTO, commented, ‘The Jola network is built on technology from Amazon Web Services, Cloudflare and Cisco and underpins our Fixed IP and Private APN services. We are the first MVNO in the world to partner with Cloudflare to ensure secure, fast delivery across our network. Cloudflare gives Jola partners protection against DDOS attacks but more importantly peace of mind that we are using world-class suppliers to prevent new threats as they emerge.’
Jola is a mobile data aggregator and MVNO, which means that we offer services from all major UK networks and hundreds of networks globally. We have been selling mobile data to the channel since 2014, and we understand our partners’ pain points and the needs of their end users in each vertical market. Over time, we have developed a unique portal that gives you the control and visibility you need to manage global SIM estates – control you can even extend to your customers. We have also developed unique hardware solutions that save our partners time, helping them create a great customer experience, maximise their margins and minimise costs for their customers.
