United States : RADWARE secures cyber-defense contract [TendersInfo (India)]


(TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) On Thursday, a Mahwah-based provider of application delivery and security solutions, Radware, announced winning a multimillion-dollar contract from a national financial services company based on the West Coast, whose name was not revealed.



The company will use Radware s DefensePro, a real-time, behavioral-based attack mitigation device designed to fend off cyber-crime like denial of service attacks and data breaches.

DefensePro is to be implemented at various U.S. data centers, along with Radware s AlteonNG decryption and load balancing software.


Carl Herberger, vice president of security solutions for Radware, said, Financial institutions are on the front-lines of cyber-attacks, and detecting and mitigating these attacks with a high degree of quality and in real time is critical.

Realizing this, attackers are beginning to encrypt their attacks with SSL (secure sockets layer encryption protocol) to complicate a bank's protection capabilities. Considering this, the investment of deploying DefensePro with SSL protections in several of their data centers will help secure their networks, applications, and most of all, customer data.
