When a company gets hit by a cyberattack, every hour matters. Data may be leaking, systems may be down, and regulators are watching the clock. In the middle of all this pressure, legal teams are expected to make fast, accurate decisions about notification deadlines, contractual obligations, and regulatory exposure.

Trading firms have always dealt with risk. Market risk, credit risk, operational risk, these are old concerns that every firm learns to manage early on.

It is an active attack surface, and it is scaling rapidly.

Link11, a leading European provider of cloud-based cybersecurity solutions, today announced the launch of its completely rebuilt Layer 3/4 DDoS mitigation solution, designed to address the growing complexity of modern network attacks.

They can originate from compromised devices within trusted and legitimate networks, mimic real traffic, and appear in short, high-intensity bursts that leave little time for manual response.
