Latin America. Today's organizations are tasked with protecting an increasing number of attack vectors. A growing number of attacks seek to simply overwhelm servers with requests and use encryption deceptively to attack networks and applications in ways that traditional products struggle to detect and defend.
To provide better protection against emerging threats, F5 introduces two standalone products designed to help customers instantly deploy dedicated security solutions. These solutions provide a simple and fast remedy with essential visibility and actionable insights that eliminate industry 'blind spots' and safeguard assets and business data.
F5® DDoS Hybrid Defender™ offers superior infrastructure protection by combining DDoS defense across multiple levels of networks, sessions, and applications to intelligently integrate off-site cloud cleanup in a convenient all-in-one format. This approach helps eliminate illegitimate requests to keep operations and sites operating smoothly.
Next-generation DDoS defense with behavioral analytics to identify and mitigate attacks, machine learning to detect evasive threats or traffic anomalies, and powerful automation capabilities to increase efficiency.
Cloud-based On-Demand Cleanup in a hybrid model, redirecting volumetric attack traffic imperceptibly to reduce additional costs and significantly improve network bandwidth usage.
Unparalleled application inspection of level 7 (L7) attacks, with in-depth discovery of threats to applications based on data relay logic, HTTP aggregative signals, and TCP request characteristics, transactions, and general server condition.
Maximum performance and the shortest time to mitigate attacks targeting the network, applications and IT infrastructure.
F5® SSL Orchestrator™ provides critical visibility into industry blind spots created by the increasing use of encryption in enterprise networks. The product combines industry-leading cryptographic capabilities with context-aware dynamic service linking to enhance hardening capabilities, increase detection capabilities, and improve network operations and orchestration.
Centralized management of encryption/decryption, traffic handling and load distribution services at all levels of security to reduce total cost of ownership and improve business continuity.
Visibility into the gaps SSL can open for traditional security tools and overloaded firewalls, with context-based intelligence and strong proxy-level control over code and protocols.
Vastly improved visibility of SSL traffic at critical points in the attack flow, thereby helping to mitigate the dangers of attack, recurrence, and data leakage between services (common between advanced and persistent threats).
Native integration with various popular network security and advanced threat management solutions to further reduce risk and maximize the value of existing investments.
"Today's increasingly destructive and damaging attacks can instantly decimate traditional security solutions," said Karl Triebes, executive vice president of product development and chief technology officer at F5. "These new devices provide autonomous functionality to quickly and comprehensively address industry-specific challenges. With a wide range of cloud, software and hardware solutions, F5 provides compelling options for integrating security into the evolving network and application infrastructures in ways that best fit organizational priorities, compliance mandates and customer needs."
