HOD HASHARON, Israel,
August 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Allot Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ:
ALLT, TASE: ALLT), a leading provider of security and monetization
solutions that enable service providers and enterprises to protect
and personalize the digital experience, confirmed today that its
DDoS Protection solution takes an approach identified by analysts
Frost & Sullivan as an optimal way for service providers to
thwart increasingly sophisticated DDoS attacks.
Frost & Sullivan's new white paper, "Service Provider
Requirements for DDoS Mitigation" reveals how service providers can
best address the growing threat of DDoS attacks that have become
more frequent and formidable than ever. In particular, it discusses
the effectiveness of integrated DDoS mitigation solutions that
provide a crucial combination of features for protecting service
provider networks. The whitepaper notes that such a vital
combination is rare to find in a single appliance. Allot
Communications DDoS protection offers this type of
solution.
Frost & Sullivan advises that inline DDoS mitigation with
DPI-based traffic analysis provides an optimal multi-layer defense.
It states that such a solution can identify both inbound and
outbound threats, facilitate network optimization by enforcing
acceptable use policies, and sustain users' QoE (Quality of
Experience). The whitepaper discusses one such integrated DDoS
mitigation solution, offered by Allot Communications as a single,
purpose-built appliance. Such a solution would offer vital
capabilities for protecting service provider networks, but could
also offer value in terms of optimization and cost reduction.
"The mitigation of DDoS attacks is now a top priority for
enterprises and service providers alike. Attackers are modifying
their behaviors to evade defenses. For example, traditional DDoS
detection tools that rely on baselines and sampling require time to
accurately diagnose an attack in progress before starting the
mitigation process," reveals Frost & Sullivan Network
Security Senior Industry Analyst Chris
Rodriguez. "In addition, attackers are utilizing
'hit-and-run' style attacks, lasting only a few minutes, to defeat
time-dependent defenses such as centralized scrubbing centers or
on-demand cloud services, "
"Enterprise organizations are already challenged to solve the
DDoS problem on their own. Service providers have their own
networks to defend, but can also utilize DDoS mitigation services
to gain an edge over the competition, offering DDoS mitigation to
their own customers as a value-added feature or a dedicated premium
service," added Rodriguez.
"The new breed of IoT-based DDoS attacks requires dynamic
solutions and Allot's solution provides these," said
Ronen Priel, VP Product
Management & Marketing at Allot Communications. "Networks
need comprehensive defense against these threats without
compromising operational efficiency, so that quality of experience
and services are maintained, and providers' business is therefore
safeguarded. With Allot, service providers can achieve this."
