Radware Launches Ultimate IoT Botnet Protection With New DefensePro® Lineup
September 19 2017 - 6:00AM
Radware® (NASDAQ:RDWR), a leading provider of cyber security and
application delivery solutions, today introduced a comprehensive
solution for protection from network layer attacks, including
increased threats stemming from Internet-of-Things (IoT) botnets.
These newest additions to the Radware DefensePro line provide
automated protection from fast moving, high volume, encrypted or
very short duration threats, including: IoT-based attacks like
Mirai, as well as Pulse, Burst, DNS, TLS/SSL attacks, and those
attacks associated with Permanent Denial of Service (PDoS) and
Ransom Denial of Service (RDoS) techniques.
“By 2020, Gartner predicts we will see 26 billion
connected devices. That is hundreds of thousands of new, vulnerable
devices coming online every day increasing the threat surface in a
way beyond comprehension," said Carl Herberger, Vice President of
Security Solutions at Radware. “The massive Mirai attack in October
2016 crippled internet infrastructure and services, and IoT Botnets
have been rumored to be involved in nearly every major DDoS attack
since. Moreover, the future portends exponentially larger and more
destructive threats. It is critical that companies protect their
networks and assets as the IoT landscape expands.”
Radware built its new DefensePro line to overcome both the
complexity and scale of these sophisticated IoT botnets. New
behavior-based algorithms protect against known and unknown DNS
flood attacks in the most scalable/bullet-proof way: Protection
based on ingress-only traffic that eliminates the need for
bi-directional traffic for DNS attack protection. A single
deployment model offers both authoritative and recursive DNS
service protection and advanced attack coverage to protect against
the latest DNS attacks, including the DNS Water Torture Attack used
on Dyn US in October 2016. The DefensePro product line’s new,
in-the-box, patented SSL attack mitigation provides the lowest
latency, most efficient SSL-attack protection with the widest
coverage from SSL-based DDoS attacks.
In addition, new burst attack protection detects and mitigates
short bursts of high-volume attacks. With the new DefensePro line,
organizations can avoid the frequent disruptions burst attacks can
cause in their network server’s SLA and ensure legitimate users
have uninterrupted access to services.
As part of its new line of DefensePro products, Radware now
offers a full range of next generation protection platforms that
includes:
- DefensePro VA – a virtual appliance with mitigation capacity of
up to 20Gbps. Best for organizations operating in a
virtualized environment and Software Defined Data Centers (SDDC) as
well as for cloud hosting providers looking to scale protection to
their customers.
- DefensePro 20 – Supporting 2Gbps through 12Gbps of legitimate
traffic with up to 20Gbps mitigation capacity. Best fit for
small and medium size enterprises.
- DefensePro 60 - Supporting 10Gbps through 40Gbps of legitimate
traffic with up to 60Gbps mitigation capacity. Designed for
large data center protection deployed by large enterprises,
eCommerce and service providers.
- DefensePro 200 & 400 – Radware’s largest devices offering
up to 200Gbps and 400Gbps mitigation capacity respectively. Best
fit for carriers, scrubbing centers and service providers looking
for a single platform to handle very high volume attacks.
Radware’s full suite of DefensePro products are based on
industry-leading technologies that provide the most advanced DDoS
protection in the market, including:
- Behavioral-based algorithms for attack detection that goes
beyond just SYN flood protection to offer a wide range of
protections at high mitigation capacity, including SSL, DNS, and
more.
- Real-time signature creation and advanced challenge escalations
to achieve highest mitigation accuracy that can automatically
mitigate unknown attacks and minimize the impact on legitimate
traffic.
- A comprehensive set of security modules and algorithms
including behavioral security, protocol anomaly detection and
session anomaly detection, intrusion prevention, and anti-scanning
to provide the widest data center attack detection.
- High performance throughout the suite of devices, offering
various mitigation capacity to meet different needs—ranging from 20
Gbps all the way up to 400 Gbps mitigation capacity per device,
allowing customers to enjoy the widest range of simultaneous
cyber-attack protection in the industry.
- Integrated solution that offers full automation of the attack
lifecycle and synchronized messaging to improve detection and
mitigation response and accuracy.
