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

February 22, 2007-(TopHosts News Brief)—Web hosting provider, Future Hosting, serving small to medium sized businesses internationally, just introduced its new Business Continuance Protection (BCP), which offers business owners cost overage protection in the event of a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack on their Virtual Private Server.

Companies who are victims of Distributed Denial of Service attacks consume significant amounts of data transfer and bandwidth in a short period of time often resulting in overage charges running into 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 in a company news release.

The Livonia, Michigan based company now offers Business Continuance Protection starting 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.
