HOD HASHARON, Israel,
Oct. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ - Allot
Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ: ALLT) (TASE: ALLT), a leading global
provider of innovative network intelligence and security solutions
for service providers and enterprises worldwide, has partnered with
Swiftel Networks, a leading provider of global network and IP
transit. Allot will provide Swiftel with a distributed
denial-of-service (DDoS) protection solution to offer it as a
service across their expansive network of internet service provider
(ISP) and enterprise customers.
Allot developed a turnkey DDoS security-as-a-service solution
that provides an additional opt-in layer of protection on top of
the existing transit link services purchased from Swiftel Networks.
This solution is groundbreaking as it provides DDoS and deep packet
inspection (DPI) in a cloud scrubbing center. Revenues from the
security solution will be shared between the two companies.
DDoS attacks have grown exponentially over the past year. To
combat this phenomenon among its customer base, Swiftel teamed up
with Allot. "We were looking for the perfect match – a vendor who
would work as a true partner of Swiftel – to provide product
simplicity, accuracy and scalability. After testing several
vendors' capabilities, we found Allot to be the only vendor that
has both DPI and DDoS protection with the fastest mitigation
working in both directions," says Ahad Aboss, Head of Global
Infrastructure, Cloud and IoT at Swiftel. "Our customers will have
the same level of innovation, and accessibility they've come to
rely on us for, but with an added layer of security, and more
choice for providers and agents to build, grow, and profit with
Swiftel Global Network."
To create this solution specifically for Swiftel, Allot
incorporated its DDoS Secure solution for mobile, fixed, and cloud
service providers with an added DPI and root cause intelligence.
Swiftel customers and partners will benefit from detailed attack
forensics and analytics to treat the root cause of misbehaving
endpoints. They will also benefit from the solution's ability to
rapidly mitigate volumetric DDoS attacks and neutralize outbound
threats before they affect network service and business continuity.
The solution allows Swiftel and its customers to be aware of their
transit utilization and quality of experience while DDoS is being
mitigated.
"Placing a scrubbing center with both DPI and DDoS functionality
in the cloud is revolutionary. By doing so, Swiftel is poised to
truly disrupt the IP Transit market with this Allot-powered DPI and
DDoS Secure cloud-based turn-key solution," said Daniel Keidar, VP Solution Architecture and Head
of Oceana at Allot. "We are enabling Swiftel to provide a low cost,
reliable and secure transit network to their customers."
