Chief Telecom, a major telecommunications provider in Taiwan, has partnered with RETN, a leading global network services provider, to leverage RETN’s newly launched DDoS mitigation platform.
The solution integrates RETN’s advanced DDoS mitigation technology with Chief Telecom’s strong IP Transit services customer portfolio, offering Chief Telecom’s customers protection against evolving cyber threats while maintaining high-quality, resilient internet connectivity.
RETN’s platform provides automated threat detection and mitigation, leveraging machine learning to detect malicious traffic before it reaches the network, ensuring uninterrupted service even during large-scale cyberattacks.
In addition, the solution benefits from RETN’s extensive global network, which connects Europe and Asia, making Taiwan a crucial point in this intercontinental link. The partnership ensures that Chief Telecom can offer businesses in Taiwan robust security features, including volumetric attack protection, application layer defence, and protocol attack mitigation, all supported by a 24/7 Security Operations Centre (SOC) and real-time alerts.
Tim Chiang, Vice President, Chief Telecom, said: “This collaboration ensures that businesses can operate without fear of downtime, even in the face of the most sophisticated cyber threats.”
Chief’s Taipei Internet Exchange (TPIX) is one of the largest in Asia, connecting businesses and ISPs across the region.
As Taiwan grows into a global technology hub with one of the highest internet penetration rates in Asia, businesses face an increasing threat of cyberattacks, especially DDoS attacks.
Taiwan’s position as a key gateway for Asia-Pacific internet traffic also increases its exposure to cybersecurity risks.
