Corero Network Security plc (AIM: CNS.L), a leading provider of real-time, automatic Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) cyber defense solutions, and Juniper Networks, a leader in secure, AI-driven networks, team up to provide Plusnet, an organization offering communications and network services to 25,000 businesses in Germany, with their joint DDoS Protection Solution to protect its infrastructure, business and customers within seconds of a DDoS attack.Over the past 20+ years, DDoS attacks have always been a part of the threat landscape, but their frequency, magnitude and sophistication are constantly increasing.
However, this in-house solution required manual intervention, which was neither practical nor effective as attacks mounted and evolved.
Plusnet needed to automate DDoS mitigation with effective, dynamic, and scalable protection to defend its national network from attack-driven outages.
With the Juniper-Corero solution, Plusnet is able to further improve network protection without any significant impact on network performance,â saidRalf Weber, Head of Competence Center Network & Security, Plusnet.Solution highlights:The joint solution removes malicious traffic at the network edge, as close to the source as possible, delivering fast and effective protection cost-effectively.
Plusnet took an active approach to thwart DDoS attacks with Juniper Networks and Corero Joint DDoS Protection, delivering real-time detection and line-rate mitigation of DDoS attacks, which is able to identify and block very significant attacks in seconds.Juniper NetworksŽ MX Series Universal Routing Platforms work together with Corero SmartWall Threat Defense Director to rapidly identify, precisely detect and automate mitigation of attacks.
As DDoS attacks continue to increase, the protection capacity provided by this solution can be expanded to tens of terabits per second.âMore than ever before, providers need to ensure that their infrastructure and business operations are always available to deliver an exceptional user experience.
