KT, try www.sucuri.net 

They provide a great anti-ddos service.

Myself, I prefer an outside service from the ISP or a company like Sucuri or Cloudflare, although I lean more towards 
Sucuri.

Hi,

Thanks for your replies.

Noted the points raised by Jacint and Kelly Keeton. I appreciate that.

May I be kind to seek an opinion/ arguments suggesting if the In-house appliances are more "intelligent" thwarting the 
application level DOS/ DDoS attacks as compared to ISP provided DOS protection wherein it may even fail to detect them. 
or if there are other benefits owning an In-house product?

As far as Cons are concerned, I feel that the appliance may add some latency which may create issues wherein a latency 
of milliseconds count.

Although we're small, We're an organization playing with ($,¥,€,£) exchanges and heavily regulated by the Government.

Thanks,
KT
