A10 eases the transition to software-defined data centers and NFV
with 100G virtual appliances and industry’s highest performing SSL/TLS
support for Bare Metal platforms
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
A10
Networks (NYSE: ATEN), a provider of intelligent and automated
cybersecurity solutions, today announced ultra-high capacity
software solutions in both virtual and bare metal versions for high
performance application delivery with the industry’s highest level of
security. A10’s high-speed 3rd Generation SSL processing with
advanced cipher support has now been incorporated into the bare metal
solution. The new solutions expand support for A10 Application Delivery
Controllers (ADCs), Carrier Grade Networking (CGN) and Converged
Firewall with SSL Insight (CFW) platforms, and are available today.
Businesses are adopting SDN and NFV based virtualization technologies
for rapid deployment of applications; improved operational agility and
overall reduction of operational expenses. However, many enterprise
applications are business-critical with strict compliance and end-user
experience requirements. Such business-critical applications demand
virtualized infrastructure to assure higher performance, scalability and
security needs.
A10’s new high capacity software solutions enable organizations
experiencing hyper growth including service providers, web hosting and
large enterprises to migrate to SDN and NFV based topologies for
application delivery and security services; while ensuring the highest
level of session security between client and server with industry
leading SSL capacity.
The nature of the end-user content delivered is also undergoing a
paradigm shift. The percentage of this traffic that is encrypted is
surpassing 70% with the majority of that (over 80%) based on advanced
elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) using Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS).
IT is forced to support advanced ciphers at high throughput and
transaction rates.
