· Smarter DDoS attack detection and dynamic mitigation with Thunder TPS 3.2. Traffic baselines leverage multi-protocol behavioral indicators to learn peacetime network conditions, enabling precise detection of anomalies. Dynamic mitigation policies escalate suspect traffic through progressively tougher countermeasures to minimise legitimate traffic drops. DevOps can leverage event-based scripting for increased operational agility
· Automated signaling for volumetric attack protection through Verisign's cloud DDoS protection service. The redirection option utilises the Verisign OpenHybrid™ API to provide anomaly information and can trigger a swing of customer's traffic to Verisign's cloud-based services when volumetric DDoS protection is needed. This hybrid solution broadens the market reach of Thunder TPS to enterprises with limited internet bandwidth
· Integration with existing DDoS solutions for investment protection. Leveraging open networking standards, Thunder TPS mitigation integrates easily with existing DDoS detection solutions. Open networking standards support enables tight integration with many other devices, including SDN controllers and security products
In addition to Thunder 3.2 and the Verisign DDoS Protection Service, organisations can further complement their DDoS protection with the recently announced:
· aGalaxy to streamline operations. Empowering administrators to centrally manage multiple Thunder TPS deployments to enable real-time troubleshooting, incident management and reporting · A10 Threat Intelligence Service to increase security efficacy. Providing a dynamic intelligence feed that prevents data theft, reduces the network load, and minimises the attack surface
