Radware (Nasdaq: RDWR), a global leader in Intelligent Traffic Management (ITM) solutions that bring certainty to dynamic networks, today announced that FireProof, its firewall traffic management product, has been awarded an "Editor's Choice" Award by Network Computing magazine in the review titled "Fireproofing Against DoS Attacks." The magazine tested an array of products capable of mitigating any form of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
In their review, Network Computing observed:
"The Radware FireProof 2.2 with SynApps software reigned supreme for hands-off attack mitigation. The deciding factors were price and the features provided for that price. In Radware's case we had gigabit routing, switching and firewall load-balancing."
"The FireProof is a versatile, self-contained device that would be easy to deploy at your network's border or internally. Its sister device, the Web Server Director, also includes SynApps but offers Web server-centric (rather than firewall-centric) features."
"This is further proof of our superior technology and product offering. Our Application Switch platform coupled with Synapps Architecture provides our customers with the industry's most intelligent and highest performing security traffic management product," said Roy Zisapel, President and CEO, Radware.
