Radware's Attack Mitigation System Helps Installazioni Impianti Ensure Business Continuity and Defend Against Malicious Network Attacks
Leading security solution helps IT infrastructure provider increase customer satisfaction and profitability
MAHWAH, New Jersey, December 19, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
Radware [http://www.Radware.com ] (NASDAQ: RDWR), a leading provider of application
delivery [http://www.radware.com/Products/ApplicationDelivery/default.aspx ] and
application security
[http://www.radware.com/Products/ApplicationNetworkSecurity/default.aspx ] solutions for
virtual and cloud data centers, today announced its award-winning, real-time network
Attack Mitigation System (AMS) has been deployed by Installazioni Impianti
[http://www.installazioniimpianti.it ], one of the largest technology and infrastructure
design firms in Italy.
Installazioni Impianti turned to Radware to improve its business continuity program,
especially protection for its mission-critical systems for customers involved in
high-risk, security-focused environments such as defense agencies, public authorities,
airports, hospitals and financial services. The company specializes in providing remote
building surveillance systems, access control, intrusion detection systems, remote
monitoring, data transmission and geographical networks for public administration and
private firms.
After comparing several alternative solutions, Installazioni Impianti chose Radware
AMS because it offered a holistic network security approach delivered through a fully
integrated attack mitigation system rather than adding more point security tools. Not only
does this reduce capital expenses, it also saves on operational expenses by reducing the
complexity of collecting data and managing the system.
More importantly, the holistic approach of Radware AMS provides an additional level of
protection at the network perimeter to defend against increasingly complex multi-vector
attacks. These are the new generation of cyber attacks that strike network IT assets at
multiple layers, employ large scale botnet attacks, or are launched by sophisticated
attackers that imitate real users in order to misuse services and application resources.
"With Radware's Attack Mitigation System, we are able to design, configure and
implement a solution of logical security specially targeted to the needs of the most
critical areas of public administration, particularly for public safety," said Ing.
Alessandro Cattani, general manager, Installazioni Impianti S.p.A. "This implementation
allows us to effectively defend our systems from possible cyber attacks, ensuring both
operational and data protection."
Radware's AMS is a real-time network and application attack mitigation solution that
protects the application infrastructure against network and application downtime,
application vulnerability exploitation, malware spread, information theft, Web service
attacks and Web defacement. It contains a protection layer with security modules including
Denial-of-service (DoS) protection, Network Behavioral Analysis (NBA), Intrusion
Prevention System (IPS), Reputation Engine and Web Application Firewall (WAF) to fully
safeguard networks, servers and applications against known and emerging network security
threats.
The solution also contains built-in Security Information Event Management (SIEM) that
collects and analyzes events from all modules to provide an enterprise-wide view of
situational awareness along with unified monitoring and reporting. This protects against
vulnerabilities at critical points across the infrastructure. Radware supplements these
capabilities by adding the human factor - the professional security consultants of its
Emergency Response Team (ERT) who are available around the clock. As literal "first
responders" to cyber attacks, Radware's ERT members gained their extensive experience by
successfully defending against some of the industry's most notable hacking episodes,
providing the expertise and experience to mitigate the kind of attack a business's
security team may never have handled.
"By implementing Radware AMS into the Installazioni Impianti network, we were
confident we could address their security concerns, all the while assuring high
performance levels," said Alberto Prandini, Regional Director Italy, Greece and Cyprus,
Radware. "Radware AMS provides companies the assurance that they have a trusted partner to
help them meet the evolving cyber attack landscape, who can deliver a distinct competitive
advantage and uninterrupted, safe networking experiences."
