Radware Secures Cyber Defense Deal With Major Online Gaming Company
January 30 2019 - 6:00AM
Radware® (NASDAQ: RDWR), a leading provider of cybersecurity and
application delivery solutions, today announced it has secured a
multi-million dollar contract with a leading global online gaming
company to provide protection from next generation attacks and
specifically encrypted attacks. The deal includes a combination of
hardware and subscription services including support and training
over a three-year period.
The online gaming company selected Radware’s DefensePro© SSL
solution to provide seamless, effective mitigation without
impacting the online customer experience. It chose Radware’s
solution over competitors’ solutions for its leading detection and
mitigation capabilities coupled with unparalleled scalability, a
critical value-add as the company looks to explore new markets and
expand its footprint.
“This win is part of a large infrastructure transformation that
focused on improved user experience,” commented Yoav Gazelle, Vice
President of International Sales for Radware. “This customer chose
Radware to help strengthen its resilience and enhance
responsiveness to its more than 30 million customers
worldwide.”
Today more than 72% of all internet traffic is encrypted.
Many online gaming websites have transitioned to SSL environments
in order to encrypt sensitive data, like credit card information,
as it passes from a customer’s browser to the gaming company’s
server. But by doing so, they increase the chance of cyber
criminals using that same encryption to hide malicious data and
attacks, such as SQL injection attacks, or finding vulnerabilities
within the SSL protocol itself.
Radware’s solution detects and mitigates attacks, provides
stronger resiliency, and enhances responsiveness through its low
latency, offering a better customer experience to millions of
customers.
Gazelle added, “Encrypted connections are essential to
safeguarding the privacy of sensitive personal data. But they also
create opportunities for attackers if additional layers of security
are not in place. All businesses have an obligation to
protect customers from threats to their network. Eliminating
security blind spots due to SSL traffic is crucial to providing a
fast and reliable service. Radware’s solution offers the advanced
detection and mitigation that those who rely on SSL need to protect
the customer experience.”
