Protect IP Services with Threat Detection System

Arbor Networks, provider of secure service control solutions for global business networks, introduced the 10 Gig Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) detection and mitigation systems that enables application-layer attack protection. The Threat Management System 3100 (TMS) delivers Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) of more than 80 critical IP services and applications running on the network such as DNS, HTTP, VoIP, IM, etc.
In order to optimize the deployment of these services, a service provider can choose from several TMS models. There are also multiple ways that a TMS device can interface with the network, such as in-line with fail-safe hardware bypass, BGP off/on ramping, or a SPAN port.
According to Rob Malan, Arbor s co-founder and CTO providers are looking for scalable, rapid deployment of managed services that are easy to operate and manage. This system addresses the 10 Gig markets, while dramatically improving the operational benefits of the overall TMS platform.
By tightly integrating TMS into the Peakflow SP platform, this solution combines network-wide detection and traffic engineering with threat management. This automatically detects and surgically removes only attack traffic while maintaining legitimate business traffic. Additionally, TMS comes with Peakflow SP s other mitigation techniques such as fingerprint sharing, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) black-hole routing, BGP flow-spec, and support for other mitigation technologies.
The Peakflow SP platform offers a combination of macro-level (IP flow) and micro-level (deep packet inspection) analysis to address all network security threats. TMS streamlines operations and speeds reaction time by providing users with a single console and common user interface for thwarting multiple attacks. In addition, it can reduce operating expenses through simplified provisioning and uncomplicated ongoing maintenance. It aims to provide a much lower total cost of ownership than competitive solutions.
Peakflow SP enables service providers to leverage the same solution used for infrastructure visibility and security to deliver new, differentiated, revenue-generating managed services, such as MPLS VPN visibility and DDoS protection.
It also includes features such as mitigation templates, auto-mitigation, TMS grouping, and statistics. All these ease the provisioning and operation of these managed DDoS services, which ultimately cuts costs and increases profitability.
More than 40 service providers are utilizing the Peakflow SP platform to deploy network-based offerings in an easy and scalable way to protect their enterprise customer s networks from DDoS and other cyber attacks.
