According to the company, the deployment has enabled Go Daddy to improve protection against threats blocked in the cloud before they reach the Go Daddy network and servers, in addition to enhancing visibility of threat activity and associated protection.
The solution helps implement flexible, fast responses to changing threats, with customisable rules, minimises impact on server performance for maximised customer satisfaction while reducing the total cost of ownership, the company added.
