MAHWAH, N.J., Nov. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Radware® (NASDAQ: RDWR), a global leader in application security and delivery solutions for multi-cloud environments, today announced it signed an agreement with a top 10 airport in India. The airport plans to leverage Radware’s Cloud DDoS Protection and Cloud Application Protection Services and work with Radware’s Emergency Response Team in response to a rise in cyber attacks. The cyber investment marks an expansion in the airport’s existing relationship with Radware. The airport previously deployed Radware’s Alteon® application delivery controller.
The airport ranks among the busiest in India. It has an infrastructure that connects to more than 30 countries and 20 airlines, and serves more than 10 million travelers annually.
Radware’s unique ability to automatically detect and mitigate large-scale HTTPS floods, also known as Web DDoS attacks, influenced the airport’s recent buying decision. According to Radware’s H1 2024 Global Threat Analysis Report, Web DDoS attacks are making significant gains in frequency and intensity, surging globally 265% between the second half of 2023 and the first half of 2024.
“Cyberattacks against airports have become favored particularly among hacktivist collectives because of the high-profile chaos they create for victims,” said Nikhil Karan Taneja, Radware’s vice president and managing director for India, the Middle East, and South Asia. “With the rising demand for air travel, airports are under even more pressure to protect their digital infrastructures from emerging threats, while delivering uninterrupted services for airlines and passengers. Radware’s one-stop cloud security solutions are game changers for time-strapped security teams, providing powerful tools to scale their capabilities and automate their defenses.”
Radware’s cloud protection services are backed by a global network of over 50 cloud security service centers with more than 15Tbps of mitigation capacity. The network is designed to help organizations reduce traffic latency, increase service redundancy, and comply with offshore data routing requirements.
Radware’s AI-powered Cloud DDoS Protection Service is uniquely designed to automatically identify and surgically block Web DDoS and network attacks and other harmful traffic without disrupting legitimate requests. Using advanced behavioral algorithms, the solution instantly adapts DDoS defenses based on the specific attack vector. It not only mitigates DDoS attacks but also safeguards the network, optimizes application performance, and maintains availability during attacks.
Radware’s Cloud Application Protection Service provides comprehensive, agnostic application protection through the company’s industry-leading web application firewall (WAF), bot detection and management, API protection, client-side protection, and application-layer DDoS protection. Combining end-to-end automation, AI-powered algorithms, behavioral-based detection, and 24/7 managed services, the solution is designed to offer the highest level of application protection with the lowest level of false positives.
