Dear disBalancers,

We are happy to inform you that the MVP is ready to meet our first client’s needs! We believe this is the day of developing the biggest army of the crypto and cybersecurity world, which uses its powers for good.

Our software is ready for installation, use, and testing for the first cyber warriors.

How The Platform’s Made

The disBalancer platform is based on the connection between the server-side and client-side. Both have perspectives on scaling up in the nearest future.

The client side, by installing the application, becomes part of the system by providing unused bandwidth to carry out DDos attacks.

He can easily track the bandwidth volume by using a desktop application.

On the server-side, we set the goal and decide which type of testing is required for the client who will perform the load. The server also provides data collection on clients' behavior like connection time and the number of tests being performed. This data is necessary for fair rewards distribution.

Services

These two parts are core-forming ones for disBalancer, a decentralized node network. It allows us, together with you, our honorable community, to provide an up-to-date product line including:

  • Stress Testing

It’s about real-world DDoS attack scenarios assessing whether a client applies an effective DDoS mitigation strategy. The attack is legal and safe and carried out in a controlled environment. That is why a client suffers no damage. The goal of disBalancer is to check the testing results to point out actionable measures that need to be taken by a client to improve the security of its systems.

  • DDoS Consulting

Our DDoS Hardening service will allow you to secure your infrastructure to make it resistant to the most advanced and complex DDoS attacks. Our team will examine your current setup and provide practical advice on possible architecture improvements, the optimization of DDoS appliance configuration, and DDoS vendor selection.

  • Token Launch Protection

We can protect any ICO from bad actors who want to scam your community by making fake ICO websites. Via our network, we ban scam websites by making them unavailable and protecting the startup’s community from scams until the end of ICO.

To deliver our services on the MVP stage, there are 3 types of attack being implemented:

  • Our modification of HTTPS flood (OSI L7)
  • UDP Flood OSI L4
  • SYN Flood OSI L4.

In the future, the number of attack types will increase to 15.

MVP In-A-Beta-Testing-Way

Since the MVP launch is coming as a beta test, we want to share the details of its running with you. 30 beta testers located in 21 countries have the opportunity to install and test our software with main core functions. With the upcoming desktop application, testers will find key performance indicators and the volume of borrowed bandwidth metrics.

Early stress tests will be conducted for our server to collect data. Also, we will test the platform to crash different IDO’s mirror sites to protect projects and their investors from losing assets.

Project Value

“The post-COVID 19 global DDoS Protection and Mitigation market size is expected to grow from USD 3.3 billion in 2021 to USD 6.7 billion by 2026, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15.1% from 2021 to 2026”, — Markets and Markets.

We keep in mind the giving demand for DDos protection services. Moreover, we are aiming to redefine the value of DDos and make it a tool for good deeds. In contrast to classic botnets, we expect that each client, platform user, or community member gets a profit by:

- testing its sites/apps/servers

- helping startups grow by crashing phishing sites that steal their money

- unlike classical botnets, all users with the disBalancer installed software will get $DDOS tokens. Reward’s size will depend on the volume of free computing resources and bandwidth that the user shares.

So, the more platform users are on our side, the more benefits they get.

What’s Next

Now we are fully concentrated on the new website release that will come tomorrow.

After the site release, we will be happy to announce the launch of the user cabinet. You will find more info in the next post on our official channel.

Thank you guys for being with us and supporting the team. Your engagement means more than anything else to us. We are so happy to launch our MVP on December 29th, as we had been committing. Stay tuned, and do not miss new updates!

P.S. MVP does not guarantee the smooth functioning of the product but suggests assessing its potential and strength in the future. Therefore, we will be grateful to all the first platform users for giving honest feedback, impartiality, and the opportunity to be involved in the work on the product through testing so that it becomes better.
