Cyber security company
Radware has announced a hybrid cloud-based web application firewall service. The company, which has international headquarters in Tel Aviv, Israel, bills itself as a “global leader of application delivery and application security solutions for virtual, cloud and software defined data centers”. Its new service offers unparalleled protection from web-based cyber-attacks such as Denial of Service (DoS), SQL injections and cross-site scripting.
The transition to cloud-based services means providers and other organizations have to deal with network infrastructure that cannot be protected by “on-premise mitigation tools” and also require protection in the cloud. The new Hybrid Cloud WAF Service is the first of its kind and fully matches the industry’s new requirements, fully protecting hybrid solutions with a single solution. In particular, Radware’s new solution protects against DDoS attacks with an “always-on” DDoS detection and mitigation tool. In also addresses all of the Top 10 security risks recognized by the Open Web Application Security Project.
"It's not uncommon for enterprises to distribute their applications both on-premise and in-the-cloud. In addition, we see enterprises employ multiple cloud vendors to host various aspects of their infrastructure,” explained Radware’s Vice President of Security Solutions, Carl Herberger. “However, having a disparate network infrastructure adds a level of complexity when trying to protect your web applications. We have taken actionable steps to provide enterprise with a unified hybrid solution against web-based attacks regardless if protection is needed on-premise or in the cloud and provide better security when moving applications to the cloud as well as ease of security policy orchestration and automation."
