Future Hosting announced today it has introduced Business Continuance Protection, providing protection against data transfer and bandwidth overage charges resulting from a Distributed Denial of Service attack.

Livonia, MI -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/26/2007 -- Future Hosting (http://www.futurehosting.biz), an Internet Solutions provider serving small to medium sized businesses internationally, introduced today Business Continuance Protection (BCP), a new service providing businesses with cost overage protection in the event of a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack on their Virtual Private Server.

Businesses who are victims of Distributed Denial of Service attacks generally consume significant amounts of data transfer and bandwidth in a short period of time, due to the nature of the attack. This excessive resource consumption can result in overage charges, which can run into the hundreds or thousands of dollars per occurrence.

"Most individuals will not drive their cars without some sort of protection, because should the driver be involved in an accident, there is a huge bill he or she is likely to be responsible for. To that end, businesses should be concerned about the possibility of incurring huge overage fees resulting from a Distributed Denial of Service attack, which in most cases, they cannot effectively prevent," said Charles Kowalski, Future Hosting Chief Operating Officer. "We hope that by introducing this protection for businesses, we will provide an additional level of comfort and security."

Business Continuance Protection starts at $2.95/monthly and will alleviate any fees related to data transfer or bandwidth overages resulting from a Distributed Denial of Service attack. The service does not cover intentional attacks by the customer, and must be purchased prior to any incident. Currently, only Virtual Private Server (VPS) accounts are included in the protection.

Future Hosting, based in the SoftLayer datacenter, protects its network from Distributed Denial of Service attacks with the Cisco Guard XT appliance, and monitors traffic with Arbor Networks Peakflow. Intrusion Protection Systems from TippingPoint provide an additional level of protection, and help mitigate certain types of attacks.

Future Hosting announced today it has introduced Hybrid Virtual Private Server hosting, a novel Web hosting technology designed to encompass the strengths of both Dedicated and Virtual Private Server solutions.

Livonia, MI -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/01/2007 -- Future Hosting (http://www.futurehosting.biz), an Internet Solutions provider serving small to medium sized businesses internationally, introduced today its revolutionary managed Hybrid Virtual Private Server services, combining the flexibility of Virtual Hosting with the power and scalability of Dedicated Hosting.

Starting at only $139.95 monthly, the new Hybrid VPS plans feature either Plesk or cPanel control panel platforms, and run on between 1GB and 4GB of server RAM, depending upon the size of the plan. Plans are hosted on CentOS 4-powered servers and include 8 IP addresses.

"As a strong competitor in both the Dedicated and VPS hosting markets, we are well aware that many of our clients would be best suited with an intermediary solution that combines the strengths of each," said Vikram Patel, Future Hosting CEO.

Robust system security and monitoring represent a strong benefit of Hybrid VPS solutions. All servers are protected by Cisco hardware firewalls, and are fully managed, thereby eliminating the need for users to possess advanced technical knowledge or hire independent server administrators.

"Web hosting today can often be visualized on a continuum, with fully managed shared solutions dominating one side, and unmanaged dedicated or collocated solutions dominating the other. Until now, however, the industry has yet to see a hybridized solution that truly encompasses the strengths of both," said Patel. "We're leading the way to change that."

Clients hosted on Hybrid VPS plans will have the ability to easily switch between available plans, by either upgrading or downgrading.
