With this expansion in the Middle East, Neustar Security Services fills a burgeoning demand for a local security presence that can ensure data sovereignty and low latency performance for customers in the region. The new Dubai node also underscores the company’s commitment to continuously invest in its Ultra Secure infrastructure, ensuring that Neustar Security Services maintains the largest and best-connected distributed denial of service (DDoS) and application security network in the world.

“As a thriving financial and commercial hub, Dubai is home to many new and expanded businesses which have contributed to heightened demand for local security that can ensure data remains safely within the region,” said Carlos Morales, Senior Vice President, Solutions, at Neustar Security Services. “By deploying this new state-of-the-art data center, Neustar Security Services will provide low latency access to cutting-edge solutions and features that address a host of risks in today’s complex and ever-evolving threat environment.”

The Dubai node further reinforces Neustar Security Services’ DDoS scrubbing capacity, currently at 12+ Tbps worldwide. The new data center will provide clients throughout the Middle east local end-to-end protection against the most common attacks that threaten web-based services and infrastructure including OWASP top 10 threats, volumetric DDoS, and application-level DDoS attacks.

“Our new Dubai node is just the latest in a series of significant investments in scaling our global cloud capacity and capability. We look forward to continuing to demonstrate our commitment to customers and partners around the world in delivering the industry’s premier cloud security service,” added Colin Doherty, CEO of Neustar Security Services.
