Domain-Horse.com, a provider of web hosting and domain registration servivces, today announced that it has added another layer of security to its web hosting, deploying TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention Systems to block attacks.

Domain-Horse.com has put TippingPoint systems in place to protect all dedicated and virtual dedicated hosting servers at no additional cost. An intrusion prevention system is an in-line device that scans traffic and, based on rules, determines whether data packets are legitimate or malicious. In addition to this security feature, each dedicated and virtual dedicated hosting plan includes free rapid setup, a free SSL certificate and physical security and network monitoring.

"Security is critical for anyone doing business on the Internet. Whether our customers are selling foals or booking riding lessons, they need to know the information they're storing on their servers is secure", says Stacey Christiansen, president of Domain-Horse.com. "Adding TippingPoint security is just good business."

TippingPoint systems deliver powerful network protection, functioning transparently at gigabit speeds to guard against cyber attacks. TippingPoint's Digital Vaccine service updates filters regularly to maintain defense against the latest vulnerabilities, viruses and rogue applications.
