Combines real-time cloud protection infrastructure with on-device enforcement to deliver continuous application security beyond appliance constraints
Radware® (NASDAQ: RDWR), a global leader in application security and delivery solutions for multi-cloud environments, today announced Alteon Protect, an expansion of its AI-driven cloud security platform that modernizes how application delivery controllers (ADCs) enforce application security. Alteon Protect combines Alteon’s high-performance, on-device enforcement with Radware’s cloud-based, real-time protection platform to secure modern web applications and APIs across on-premises and cloud environments.
As cyberattacks against web applications and APIs grow in volume and sophistication, many organizations struggle to maintain strong protection without increasing operational complexity or disrupting performance. Powered by Radware’s AI-driven cloud security platform, Alteon Protect combines cloud-based, real-time protection engines and advanced detection algorithms with Alteon’s high-performance, on-device enforcement designed to detect and mitigate layer 7 Web DDoS attacks, API abuse, bot attacks, and web application threats in real time without sharing SSL certificates in the cloud.
By separating cloud intelligence and detection from on-device enforcement, Alteon Protect is designed to deliver continuous and scalable, cloud-augmented protection that is not constrained by physical device limits—without network redesign, traffic rerouting, SSL key sharing, or costly infrastructure expansion—while preserving application availability and user experience.
“Organizations shouldn’t have to choose between performance, protection, and cost,” said Gabi Malka, chief operating officer, Radware. “Alteon Protect modernizes the ADC security model by integrating cloud-augmented WAF, layer 7 Web DDoS, bot, and API protection with low-latency, on-device enforcement. This is designed to provide customers continuous, cloud-scale security while preserving their existing investments.”
Alteon Protect supports both direct enterprise deployments and self- or fully managed security services delivered by Radware, service providers and MSSPs. Customers can deploy protection for on-premises and cloud application environments directly or through managed service providers, enabling flexible adoption and scalable security services.
For enterprises, Alteon Protect is built to deliver cloud-augmented application protection without replacing ADC infrastructure, with security capacity scaling in line with demand through Radware’s Global Elastic Licensing (GEL) model. For MSSPs and service providers, the unified architecture is built to deliver multi-tenant service delivery while allowing providers to expand revenue-generating security services without increasing infrastructure complexity.
To accelerate adoption, Radware is offering aggressive programs for both existing and new customers, lowering barriers to evaluation while enabling rapid, scalable deployment.
