AT&T will begin offering new security features embedded directly into the network without the need for extra equipment. The capabilities are derived from cyber threats detected across the AT&T network backbone, which carries more than 680 petabytes of data every day.
AT&T Dynamic Defense is offered to new and existing AT&T Dedicated Internet business customers in the following areas with a broader rollout expected later this year: Washington, D.C., Dallas, TX, Atlanta, GA, Houston, TX, Ft. Lauderdale, FL, Chicago, IL, New York, NY, Cleveland, OH, Los Angeles, CA, San Francisco, CA. The offering includes three package options to suit a variety of business needs, which are:
- Standard, priced at $20/month, but is now being offered at no cost for the life of your AT&T Dedicated Internet Service.
- Advanced, $175/month, includes the first two months at no charge, if you start your service before the end of 2024.
- The Premium plan is set at $275/month.
“Cybersecurity is a core strength at AT&T, and we’re setting a new standard of connectivity, with security that starts at the network level,” said Rick Welday, Head of AT&T Business. “Our customers deserve our best effort when it comes to protecting their businesses and this innovative product offers a robust shield against cyber threats, enabling them to do more than they ever could before.”
