Case Studies
One of UK's fastest-growing lifestyle brands has managed their intermittent traffic peaks effectively for several years using Netacea’s Virtual Waiting Room product, however a large, unexpected surge in traffic gave the customer cause for concern, prompting them to ask Netacea to investigate. After a solution was implemented, it immediately began to reveal the profile of a very large, distributed bot attack, with the machine learning engine further identifying this as an account takeover and credential stuffing attack.

In this brief case study, Netacea describes the steps taken to instantly mitigate the attack and prevent a GDPR data breach disaster and a negative impact on brand.
