<div dir="ltr">Welcome Jeff. :)<div><br></div><div>Was great to catch up with you and the team again at HostingCon in Miami, and I was so excited when Shaun came up to us shouting "WE'RE COMING TO SYDNEY!!"... haha.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I know for a fact that there will be many more Australian networks coming on board and I've fielded a number of enquiries in the past couple of weeks so I think news is starting to spread.</div><div>
<br></div><div>For anybody wondering, we've been using Black Lotus since 2012 and I cannot speak highly enough about the service itself and the team behind it. They are a genuine bunch of highly skilled people who really know this stuff inside and out, and what I like best about them is that DDoS mitigation and network protection is their primary focus without any other distractions going on within the company or sales targets of other products to meet or miss which could potentially impact this part of the business. That's a huge selling point for me as I am the kinda guy who never hires a handyman to do a plumbers job.</div>
<div><br></div><div>It's been a long time since our network suffered from a DDoS related outage and with their future expansion in to Sydney it will provide even better local protection to all who use it.</div><div class="gmail_extra">

I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself as the founder of Black<br>
Lotus. As a DDoS mitigation provider which extensively services the<br>
Australian market and is in the process of extending native<br>
capabilities to the continent, the logical next step is for our<br>
engineers to build relations within the network operator community.<br>
<br>
It is a pleasure to participate and I know that my staff and I<br>
certainly look forward to meeting everyone as we begin attending local<br>
networking events. If there is anything I can do for anyone in the<br>
AusNOG community, please do not hesitate to ask.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
