Infonetics Research Report Identifies Arbor Networks as the World Leader in On-Premise DDoS ProtectionBURLINGTON, Mass. --(Business Wire)-- Arbor Networks (News - Alert), Inc., a leading supplier of DDoS and advanced threat protection solutions for enterprise and service provider networks, announced today that it has been identified as the top supplier of DDoS protection solutions overall as well as in the Carrier, Enterprise, Mobile and Government market segments according to a new report from Infonetics Research (News - Alert). The report, DDoS Prevention Appliance Market Outlook, provides a comprehensive examination of the threat landscape, market drivers and solution providers. The report highlights the changing nature of today's DDoS threat. Twenty-four months ago, the focus was on stealthy, complex application-layer attacks. In 2014, there has been a dramatic emergence of new varieties of very high volume attacks, like the DNS and NTP amplification attacks, that are pushing the boundaries of mitigation performance. "DDoS continues to be a very resilient attack vector. Two years ago, financial services firms were dealing with sophisticated blended threats that combined application and volumetric attacks in a single, sustained campaign. This year, we are seeing a dramatic spike in very high volume attacks that take advantage of DNS and NTP amplification. Next year, we're likely to see something new again," said Arbor Networks President Matthew Moynahan. "What won't change is the need for detection and mitigation capabilities on-premise, and in the cloud."
