A10 at GITEX 2014 DDoS Mitigation and Thunder ADCs

Thunder TPS delivers efficient tracking of network flaws and DDoS protection; performance scalability of Thunder ADC reaches 150 Gbps

A10 Networks will demonstrate its latest innovations in DDoS Threat Protection Systems and high-performance, next-generation ADCs at GITEX Technology Week, 12-16 October, 2014. It will use A10 Thunder™ TPS product line of Threat Protection Systems to demonstrate how to protect enterprise networks from escalating DDoS attacks and protect data centre servers and networks from service downtime resulting from these difficult-to-detect attacks.

According to Glen Ogden, Regional Sales Director for the Middle East region at A10 Networks says, over the last few years, DDoS attacks have grown dramatically in frequency, size and complexity. While Middle East organizations have existing security strategies in place that mitigate a range of security threats, they are not sufficient enough to address new breeds of DDoS attacks that leverage large distributed “botnet” networks of compromised “zombie” machines to simultaneously launch attacks using compliant protocols that are very difficult to detect and even harder to mitigate. Hence, it is clear that additional solutions are needed to complement existing security infrastructure in a layered defense model.

“At Gitex we are eager to demo Thunder TPS that provides sophisticated, high-performance features to mitigate the largest and most complex DDoS attacks while optimizing rack space and power consumption, ensuring that data center resources are used efficiently and effectively. Whether it’s Application Delivery, Virtualization, Cloud Enablement, Security or IPV6 Migration, A10 Thunder ADCs are the next evolution in Application Networking – taking Application Delivery Controllers and Server Load Balancers (SLB) to the next level.”

A10 Networks can be found in Hall 1 of the exhibition at stand number C1/16.
