Radware (NASDAQ; RDWR) the leader in intelligent Application Switching, ensuring the end-to-end control, performance and integrity of networked applications is pleased to announce the release of the industry's first and only Security Application Switch.
Meeting Network Security Challenges
Companies require reliable security infrastructures to meet growing security challenges. The integrity of an enterprise's security depends on the ability to control the operation of all security devices, maintaining their high availability and optimized service across the network. Radware's FireProof Security Application Switch fully ensures and supports enterprise wide security strategies, protecting the integrity of all of critical operations from end-to-end.
Network Security Maintained with FireProof
Radware's FireProof maintains consistent availabiliy, redundancy and integrity of all defense services and security devices across clients' enterprises. Guaranteeing the non-stop operation of firewalls, Virtual Private Networks (VPN) and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), while providing Enhanced Security Application and Denial of Service (DoS) protection, FireProof optimizes end-to-end security resources to deliver full security with transparency and certainty.
"The overall protection of network infrastructure has become a top-of-mind primary concern for enterprise IT managers. This focus is pervasive regardless if it's a company with one centrally located network or one dispersed with servers and other equipment deployed across global locations. Where once the security mindset was firewalls were adequate to assure these networks' security, times have changed," said Jeff Phillips, Director, TeleChoice. "The security infrastructure of the enterprise is rapidly expanding to include systems such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) and anti virus tools. For enterprises where high availability, redundancy and optimization of this infrastructure is key, a logical next step is the addition of traffic management capabilities encompassing all of the security devices/systems in the network."
Network Security Beyond Standard
Radware FireProof Security Application Switch goes beyond standard firewall load balancing by ensuring optimization, scalability and high availability for firewalls, VPN gateways and IDS devices, addressing the end-to-end integrity of security operations. By dynamically managing and redirecting both inbound and outbound traffic across all enterprise security devices, Radware guarantees the highest security service performance and unrivalled protection in the following ways:
- FireProof load balances traffic across multiple IDS servers and meets the demands of high throughput network segments, ensuring full security service operation without compromising defense at peak loads. FireProof significantly reduces security roll-out costs by aggregating traffic from multiple low capacity segments into one IDS server.
- SynApps' newly introduced DoS Shield Module protects against Denial of Service (DoS) attacks in real time, ensuring full protection, in Gigabit speeds. Designed for extremely high throughput environments Radware's DoS shield identifies denial of service attacks by using an advanced sampling algorithm. Detected attacks are immediately blocked, while legitimate traffic proceeds normally without hindering performance.
- FireProof 's Enhanced Application Security module provides an additional powerful layer of defense, transparently identifying and blocking over 450 attack signatures in real-time, while providing anti-scanning capabilities and bi-directional traffic inspection.
FireProof's award winning Application Security module protects the enterprises' critical resources, delivering reliable, transparent and comprehensive security-across the network.
"Radware's FireProof Security Application Switch provides the necessary tools to completely manage and optimize all security resources, assuring the integrity and full operation of critical security infrastructures" said Sharon Trachtman, VP Marketing at Radware. "FireProof allows for complete network security without compromising on visibility to customers. It eliminates multiple points of failure and bottlenecks that so often plague comprehensive security systems, while adding an additional layer of defense to critical network resources."
