If you were fortunate enough to find yourself at HostingCon 2009 you may have seen this issue of Ping! Zine floating around as it was left for distribution at numerous booths to include the Ping! Zine booth and our own Black Lotus booth. In the article captioned “Prevent DDoS Attacks,” PR specialist and technical writer Dave Young presents a 3rd party review of our services and the impact they have to companies in need of advanced DDoS protection services or who feel they may become the target of an attack.
The article provides a brief overview of our company history and the philosophy behind the services that we offer. Dave discusses our business strategies, product offerings, and how Black Lotus offers the leading edge in modern DDoS mitigation strategies.

We’re proud to announce that on August 11th we made our first public convention appearance and met with hundreds of customers, future customers, friends, and vendors. The atmosphere was simply amazing and it did not take long to realize that our marketing budget was well spent. The event was so successful that we decided to come back in 2010 as Platinum sponsors where we’ll be unveiling a new and exciting hardware platform currently in development!
Ping! Zine put out a great review of our company in their HostingCon issue which was distributed from our booth along with various schwag from our friends and vendors.
Perhaps the most exciting part for some was the video game offering. Rather than hand out some pens, paper, or stress balls we went totally unique and setup a four station Xbox 360 lab with Call of Duty 4!
Our exhibit wasn’t just fun and games. Our company President and VP of Operations were on hand to answer questions about the company vision and products we offer. We were commonly asked to explain the threats and challenges behind offering DDoS protection. Many visitors wanted to know how they could protect themselves and their customers. They learned about how Black Lotus has been in the business of stopping attacks for nearly 10 years and the evolution of the Black Lotus product as the world’s first commercialized DDoS protection solution.
Don’t worry if you missed this event, we’ll be back next year in full force!
