New A10 DDoS Protection Cloud and A10 Thunder® 1040 TPS appliance
deliver advanced hybrid DDoS protection for Enterprises
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
A10
Networks (NYSE: ATEN), a Secure Application Services™ company, today
announced the A10 DDoS Protection Cloud, powered by Verisign™,
and the A10 Thunder® 1040 TPS appliance offering advanced on-premise
protection. With the availability of the latest A10 DDoS protection
solutions, A10 delivers full spectrum enterprise protection to detect
and mitigate distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.
A10 Networks’ hybrid approach to DDoS defenses combines surgical
precision on-premise protection with orchestrated cloud scrubbing,
delivered in form factors and subscription models that are cost
effective. Smart, scalable solutions from A10 to assist with protection
against harmful DDoS attacks, helping to ensure availability of
enterprise business services while protecting legitimate users on the
network.
Unlike other cloud-based DDoS protection services, A10 DDoS Protection
Cloud, which is powered by Verisign’s cloud-based DDoS Protection
Service, is based on legitimate traffic, so enterprises do not pay for
the amount of traffic that attacks apply against their network. Traffic
diversions, or “swings,” to the cloud service are optimized by the
on-premise Thunder TPS appliances. The Thunder TPS appliance employs
machine learning, traffic profiling and intelligent policy escalation in
order to reduce disruption on-premise and alert A10 when redirection to
the cloud may be necessary.
A10 DDoS protection solutions enable automated on-premise mitigation
escalation, increasing the effectiveness of frontline defenses against
all manner of DDoS attacks, including network-based, application layer,
slow and low attacks and volumetric attacks that exceed the internet
bandwidth of an organization. Orchestrated management of Thunder TPS and
Cloud DDoS defenses offers multi-vector protection even during the
probing phase of an attack or while transitioning from on-premises to
cloud scrubbing.
“A10 now provides a single advanced solution for on-premise and cloud
scrubbing enterprise DDoS defenses, backed by our DDoS SIRT team,” said
Raj Jalan, CTO, A10 Networks. “The surgical precision and hybrid, full
spectrum approach of the A10 DDoS solution ensures enterprises are
resilient to advanced DDoS attacks in the most effective and economical
manner possible.”
“DDoS attacks are unpredictable and increasing in
complexity. Eighty-eight percent of DDoS attacks mitigated by Verisign
in Q3 2017 employed multiple attack types,” said Michael Kaczmarek, VP
of Product and Marketing, Verisign Security Services. “Many enterprises
need smart, scalable hybrid DDoS defenses to efficiently tailor
mitigation strategies to combat the changes in the DDoS landscape like
those offered by the A10 DDoS Protection Cloud and A10 Thunder TPS.”
The A10 DDoS Protection Cloud, powered by Verisign, is available in
January 2018, and the A10 Thunder 1040 TPS appliance, with an option for
hardware bypass, is available now, unleashing a full spectrum of
enterprise DDoS defenses to protect critical business service
availability. Read
