October 18 2017 - 9:00AM
Business Wire
Arbor Networks Inc., the security division of NETSCOUT (NASDAQ:
NTCT), announced today that the Arbor Cloud DDoS managed service
was named Best Enterprise Security Solution at the prestigious 2017
Computing Security Awards held last week in London. This is the
third major industry award recognizing Arbor Cloud for excellence
in distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection in the past four
weeks. Arbor Cloud was also named Best Cloud Product at the Cloud
Excellence Awards sponsored by Computing Magazine, and Best
Managed Service at the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards.
“Once again this is tremendous recognition for the DDoS managed
service that Arbor has built. The volume and sophistication of DDoS
attacks continues to increase, and for many businesses, a managed
service is their best option. With Arbor Cloud, smaller
organizations can be protected by the same technology and people
that defend the world’s largest organizations. Our message is, you
don’t have to compromise any longer on something as important as
the availability of your business,” said Theresa Abbamondi, Arbor
Networks Director of Product Management for Arbor Cloud &
Services.
Arbor Cloud: Affordable, Fully Managed DDoS
ProtectionArbor Cloud offers enterprise customers’
affordable, fully managed DDoS protection powered by the industry’s
leading technology and backed by its most experienced incident
responders. Arbor Cloud can be deployed as cloud only, hybrid -
where the customer manages the on-premise solution - or fully
managed, with Arbor handling all aspects of a best practice
multi-layered defense.
Arbor Networks® APS can be deployed as an appliance or virtual
solution, delivering visibility into traffic entering the network,
providing always-on DDoS attack detection and mitigation up to
40Gbps. Arbor’s patented Cloud Signaling capability
tightly integrates this on-premise protection with cloud-based
defenses, automating a key component of DDoS defense and
significantly reducing the time needed to mitigate attacks. This
hybrid, multi-layer defense is an industry best practice for DDoS
protection services, ensuring that enterprise networks are
protected no matter what type of advanced DDoS attack they are
facing.
Why Does Arbor Cloud Keep Winning Awards?
Industry Leading Scale: Arbor Cloud has 4Tbps of
mitigation capacity dedicated to DDoS protection. By distributing
capacity globally, attacks can be mitigated more quickly and closer
to the source. This distributed model enables customer traffic to
stay in-region and, in some cases, in-country. Not only does this
allow for quicker remediation, it provides additional value by
addressing emerging data privacy considerations on cloud service
providers.
Automated Threat Intelligence: Arbor APS is enhanced by
threat intelligence via the ATLAS Intelligence Feed (AIF).
Developed by Arbor’s Security Engineering and Response Team
(ASERT), the AIF includes geo-location data and automates the
identification of attacks from known botnets and malware while
ensuring that updates for new threats are automatically delivered
without intrusive software upgrades. Working in unison with the
AIF, Arbor APS can also block outbound threats, helping prevent
data exfiltration.
Custom Workflows: The Arbor Cloud team takes the time to
understand customer processes and has the flexibility to work
within them. With many vendors, even good ones, it’s their way or
no way.
Customer-focused Reporting: Arbor Cloud also offers
complete transparency of operations, including a view into blocked
hosts and even packets, offering the flexibility enterprises need
to alter attack countermeasures and thresholds. Arbor takes a
proactive, consultative approach that leverages global threat
intelligence as the basis for recommendations to improve customer’s
security posture, and supplies executive-level reporting that
demonstrates ROI and key metrics for the C-suite.
