Radware Helps HT Media Protect Its News and Photographic Archives From DDoS Attacks
May 26 2020 - 6:00AM
Radware® (NASDAQ: RDWR), a leading provider of cyber security and
application delivery solutions, today announced that HT Media
selected Radware’s Attack Mitigation Solution to protect the data
centers that house its archive of news and photographs, and added
Cloud DDoS protection to its on premise DDoS protection.
Founded in 1924 with its flagship newspaper inaugurated by
Mahatma Gandhi, HT Media (BSE, NSE) has today more than 3.7 million
readers across India. Its flagship property, Hindusian Times,
reaches around 950,000 readers. The company also owns other
successful properties like Livemint.com, Desimartini.com,
HTCampus.com and Shine.com. It depended upon a combination of
on-prem and ISP based Cloud Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)
protection for its data centers, where it housed many of its legacy
systems as well as its archived content.
The media company began to see a steady increase in the
frequency and volume of attacks and turned to Radware for help. It
needed a hybrid DDoS solution that combined on-prem and cloud DDoS
protection more effectively than its existing set up. Radware’s
hybrid DDoS solution integrates always-on detection and mitigation
(on-premise and cloud) with cloud-based volumetric DDoS attack
prevention, scrubbing, and 24-7 emergency support. Combining
on-premise with cloud solutions takes advantage of the low latency
and advanced functionality of Radware’s appliances with the
scalability and multi-terabit capacity of its cloud-scrubbing
service. Once Radware put a proof-of-concept in place for HT Media,
the solution began immediately and efficiently blocking
attacks.
“Radware’s automatic policy adjustments made the system easy to
deploy compared to other systems,” said Rajiv Mishra. Group CIO for
HT Media. “The Radware solution was incredibly fast at mitigation.
It was able to instantly block zero-day attacks as they
occurred.”
“We are proud to protect HT Media’s history and legacy,” said
Anna Convery-Pelletier, Radware’s Chief Marketing Officer. “Our
market-leading data center security allows companies like HT Media
to automatically detect and mitigate even the most complex DDoS
attacks.”
