Verisign uses a very thorough set up process that can take weeks. This allows them to customize the payees service to their site/s in order to provide the best protection possible.

Verisign uses a multitude of tools simultaneously to detect security breaches and DDoS attacks. By using signature analysis and dynamic profiling along with filtering of the OSI stack (in order to detect DDoS attacks that are not coming from the network layer) Verisign can easily detect attacks to then alert the user as well as start mitigating the attack.
