GPC Distributed Denial of Service Security Protection helps businesses avoid downtime and disruption due to ever-increasing cyberattacks


Blair, Nebraska, Aug. 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Great Plains Communications (GPC), a growing Midwestern telecommunications provider, today announced the availability of GPC Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Protection service for mitigating today’s ever-increasing and more sophisticated DDoS attacks.  A GPC network-based service and an enterprise best-practice, the GPC DDoS service is designed to detect and defend against high-volume distributed denial of service attacks that block customers and employees from websites and applications, thereby endangering business stability and profitability.
