HOD HASHARON, Israel,
June 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Allot Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ, TASE: ALLT), a leading
provider of security and monetization solutions that enable service
providers to protect and personalize the digital experience,
announced today that VOO, a leading provider of broadband cable
services in Belgium, had deployed
Allot Service Gateway Tera, Allot ServiceProtector and Allot's CMTS
congestion management solution to protect against DDoS attacks,
reduce cable network congestion and deliver an enhanced customer
experience.
VOO is one of the fastest growing service providers in
Europe, serving digital TV,
telephony, high speed Internet and mobile services subscribers. As
VOO rapidly expanded its business, the company found that frequent
and unpredictable episodes of network congestion, caused by DDoS
attacks and bandwidth-heavy applications, were leading to service
degradation and customer churn.
"Allot helped us surgically mitigate the dozens of DDoS attacks
that were threatening our network daily and reduce congestion from
10 percent to one percent almost immediately," said Tamara Leemans, Chief Technology Officer at VOO.
"Furthermore, we were able to free up enough bandwidth to extend
the lifetime of our existing infrastructure an extra two years and
provide our customers with a consistently great customer
experience."
With Allot's technology, VOO has been able to protect the
network from security threats, gain greater visibility into the
cause of traffic congestion and ensure high level of quality of
service for customers.
VOO deployed Allot Service Gateway Tera and Allot
ServiceProtector to deliver granular network traffic visibility,
analytics and security alongside Allot's CMTS congestion management
solution, which provides real-time traffic monitoring and
congestion analysis as well as subscriber quality of service (QoS)
assurance.
"With fierce competition and higher customer expectations,
service providers like VOO cannot afford to compromise network
performance and service availability. They need effective tools to
combat security threats and unpredictable congestion," said Gary
Drutin, Chief Customer Officer at Allot. "By integrating our
technology, VOO has been able to shore up its network security
approach and improve quality of service, which will help them
continue to win customer loyalty and drive revenue as they expand
across the region."
