In the evolving landscape of Web DDoS attacks, one challenge has remained constant. Encrypted traffic has become the primary vehicle for attackers, yet most cloud based defenses still rely on TLS decryption to see what is happening inside the flow. This limitation has forced organizations to choose between privacy and protection, compliance and visibility, operational simplicity and real security. Radware is now removing that tradeoff.
Radware is introducing a breakthrough in Web DDoS protection. It is the first and only cloud based solution that accurately detects and mitigates encrypted Web DDoS attacks without requiring TLS decryption. This new capability offers a significant leap forward for security teams seeking both precision and privacy.
A New Standard for Encrypted Traffic Defense
For years, encrypted traffic has created blind spots for defenders. Traditional solutions must decrypt traffic to inspect it, an approach that introduces complexity, regulatory concerns, certificate sharing, privacy implications, and operational overhead.
Radware has been delivering high accuracy protection for encrypted traffic without any need for TLS decryption via its on-prem appliances for DDoS protection. Organizations maintain full privacy and compliance while gaining the ability to stop advanced, adaptive, and high volume Web DDoS attacks in real time. That Capability that was limited to on-Prem deployments only is now opening the doors for deployment as well
AI-Powered Web DDoS Mitigation
Behind this capability is a powerful behavioral engine. Radware uses advanced AI and machine learning to understand how legitimate users normally behave, identify the smallest anomalies, and respond instantly. The system generates dynamic signatures specific to each attack, even as attackers change their patterns. Radware delivers consistent performance and reliable mitigation at scale across all environments. This ensures that organizations can withstand massive attacks while preserving application speed and user experience.
Expanded Deployment Flexibility
Organizations can now choose how they want to deploy Web DDoS protection based on their architecture, risk profile, and operational needs.
Radware's enhanced deployment options include
- Cloud-based protection that supports encrypted or decrypted traffic
- On-premises deployment through DefensePro
- Integration with Radware's Application Delivery platform through Alteon Protect
- Web DDoS protection built into Radware's Kubernetes WAAP for modern, containerized applications
A Meaningful Step Forward
Web DDoS attacks are only becoming more aggressive, more automated, and more targeted. The volume is increasing, sophistication is growing, and attackers are relying heavily on encrypted traffic to hide in plain sight.
Radware's No Decryption Defense capability, combined with its expanded deployment flexibility, represents a critical shift in how organizations can protect themselves. It preserves privacy, simplifies operations, and ensures resilient application availability in the face of today's most complex Web DDoS threats.
