netZentry, a leading developer of advanced network security and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack detection and mitigation solutions, is partnering with Layered Technologies (http://www.layeredtech.com), a premier provider of dedicated servers, to offer hosting customers this extra protection from external network attacks.

"Customers electing to add netZentry received more control and extra security on a targeted individual server basis from denial of service attacks," said Todd Abrams, President of Layered Technologies (LT). "Layered Technologies decided to provide netZentry’s DDos offering after viewing the additional protection power customers could utilize. We urge LT customers to exploit this valuable extra defense."

netZentry’s DDoS protection software, CleanTraffic, is the cornerstone of Netzentry’s Partner Program. CleanTraffic carefully tracks each DDoS attack at every stage of the attack and an automated email report is immediately sent to the customer being affected. Email notifications consist of a visual report that documents:

• Attack detection
• Attack mitigation
• Specific mitigation actions taken

CleanTraffic allows service providers and enterprises to defend tens of thousands of their clients and servers against threats in a customized manner, at a low total cost of ownership.

"Targeted attacks are becoming increasingly common," said Rangaswamy Vasudevan, CEO of netZentry. "netZentry’s CleanTraffic is the only solution that offers fine-grain protection to
maintain accessibility of individual services even when under attack. We are pleased to partner with Layered Technologies to extend this value-add service to their customers."
