Radware, a provider of virtual data centers and cloud Data Center application delivery and application security solutions, recently announced that two well-known social network companies have adopted the Radware widely acclaimed attack relief system (AMS) to meet the increasing security needs of users, especially to improve the level of defense against the new generation of complex and changing network threats. It is reported that the two websites will invest millions of dollars in the network security field.
Social network companies are targets of frequent attacks by hackers in recent years, these companies' strict IT security policies and the rapid growth in the world will greatly inspire "hackers" to constantly try to attack their networks. Radware AMS can help these companies put network infrastructure protection in place, help social network companies improve security policies to ensure normal network operation, and thus provide uninterrupted services to users.
Before purchasing the Radware solution, the two social network companies repeatedly compared Radware AMS with other manufacturers' security solutions. AMS is far ahead of other competitors in terms of performance, attack detection for SSL sessions, and disaster reduction capabilities. In addition, Radware has a recognized professional emergency response team, which provides global customers with real-time network attack protection 7 × 24 support.
Carl Herberger, vice president of Radware security, said: "At present, data centers and network security owners must overcome increasing difficulties and constantly update threat defense policies, only the Radware attack mitigation system is currently recognized as a solution that can effectively prevent the next generation of complex multi-layer network attacks. In addition, Radware AMS's advanced technology is integrated with the Radware emergency response team to form the most effective network security service. It is worth mentioning that currently, Radware's technical support for attack defense is unique in the industry ."
According to the global application and network security report recently released by the Radware Emergency Response Team, we can see that the complexity of the current network attack has been upgraded, many hackers can use five different attack methods in one attack. At the same time, this report also shows that the current DoS and DDoS attacks are more complex than before, and it is more difficult to prevent. attackers will detect security vulnerabilities in enterprises, and initiate multiple targeted attacks.
For example, hackers constantly use data packets to bomb the enterprise network to consume the bandwidth of the target server, and use a large number of remote connections and applications to process requests to crush the enterprise network, attackers can also initiate attacks against specific system vulnerabilities and design defects to consume resources slowly. The Radware AMS solution can detect and resolve various types of DDoS attacks within several seconds, and has the highest performance.
