Radware Ltd. (NASDAQ:RDWR), a leading provider of Internet traffic management (ITM) solutions enabling continuous access to Web sites, IP applications and content, and Easynet France - a company of the Pan-European Internet Service Provider and Telecommunications Company Easynet Group PLC - have signed a partnership to deliver end-to-end high availability and load balancing solutions for Easynet customers across Europe. This alliance will combine Radware's leading load balancing solutions with Easynet's high speed Internet access infrastructure. Radware solutions will now be part of Easynet's managed service offering.
Easynet will install Radware's award winning LinkProof product at its customers' premises, as part of Easynet's extensive multihomed services. LinkProof will be deployed to Easynet customers' multiple ISP links, guaranteeing complete network availability and the fastest content delivery. This installation will direct Easynet customers' traffic through optimal links, thereby ensuring that only fully operational links are used at peak efficiency.
In addition, Radware's FireProof will be installed into Easynet's own network infrastructures to provide efficient management of their firewalls. This will ensure full fault tolerance and redundancy while offering a cost-effective growth path for increasing security and high availability. FireProof allows network administrators to build load balanced firewall farms to eliminate potential firewall bottlenecks and possible single points of failure. This solution will dramatically reduce vulnerabilities in critical e-business efforts.
"The implementation of Radware's innovative ITM products will help support Easynet's multihomed IP network infrastructure and give Easynet customers the competitive advantage needed today." commented Jorge Gerber, Vice President of Strategic Alliances at Radware Ltd. "Radware provides the optimal solutions for a company like Easynet, providing aggressive load balancing technology for their pan European infrastructure strategies."

We are enthusiastic about this partnership because we are constantly striving to bring the best available solutions to our customers and this alliance will guarantee that our users will receive their services in the most reliable and secure manner possible."
