Arbor Networks Secures Three New Patents for DDoS Detection & MitigationArbor Networks, Inc., a leading provider of DDoS and advanced threat protection solutions for enterprise and service provider networks, today announced three additional patents for different aspects of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack detection and mitigation. Arbor has now secured 25 patents focused on DDoS defense. Since Arbor's founding, research and innovation has been at the heart of what the company does. The Lighthouse Project was established out of the University of Michigan and funded by DARPA in the late 1990s. This led to the discovery of highly scalable, service provider-class solutions for the rapid detection, backtracking and mitigation of DDoS attacks. The technology was commercialized through the founding of Arbor Networks (News - Alert) in the summer of 2000. The Lighthouse Project was later named one of the 10 Brilliant DARPA Inventions, alongside the creation of the Internet, GPS and Unix. "The spirit of innovation and problem solving that led to our founding has remained a vital part of the Arbor culture ever since. Arbor has the world's leading experts in DDoS defense. We've gained tremendous insight and experience through our relationships with the world's largest network operators," said Arbor Networks president Matthew Moynahan. "That focus on innovation and our institutional knowledge will be critical in the coming years as DDoS attacks continue to grow in size and complexity. With the emergence of the IoT on the horizon, it's likely to get even more challenging in the future."
