Network Computing, a CMP Media LLC magazine, for a 2002 Well-Connected Award in the category of DDoS Migration Tools. The product was chosen for its innovative method of mitigating any form of Denial of Service (DoS) and/or Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. FireProof was previously named Editor's Choice in the December 10, 2001 issue of
Network Computing for its ability to detect and prevent DoS attacks, ensuring full protection at Gigabit speeds.
The FireProof Security Application Switch guarantees uninterrupted operation of firewalls, Virtual Private Networks (VPN's) and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS's), while providing Enhanced Application Security and shielding from Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. FireProof optimizes end-to-end resources to deliver total security.
"Once again, Radware is first to the future, and we are pleased to be recognized by Network Computing as a Well-Connected Award finalist," said Vikram K. Desai, Chief Operating Officer, Radware. "These awards underscore our heritage of driving constant innovation and establishes us as the clear leader in network security and protection of infrastructure assets. All networks are susceptible to malicious DoS attacks, however, Radware's customers will be the best protected anywhere on the planet."
This year, the winners of the Network Computing Well-Connected Awards will be revealed at a gala event held on the evening before one of the industry's largest trade shows, NetWorld+Interop 2002 Las Vegas. All Finalists will be highlighted in the May 13th issue of Network Computing and also on Network Computing Online at www.networkcomputing.com.
Radware's FireProof is an innovative and comprehensive Security Applications Switch providing optimization, high availability and scalability for firewalls, IDS and VPN. In addition, there are advanced security modules, which are part of our SynApps architecture that may be utilized for increased security requirements. FireProof provides real time protection from over 450 of the more common attacks as well as advanced DoS protection in high throughput environments.
"No other annual awards program in the industry uses hand-on evaluations to choose its winners," said Fritz Nelson, Publisher of CMP's Network Computing. "Our editors worked at length to research and test the best offerings in the enterprise arena. Being named a Well-Connected Award Finalist is a true reflection of product quality rather than merely product popularity or marketing effectiveness."
