Additionally, Radware's "Pay-as-you-Grow" application infrastructure model enables customers to address evolving capacity requirements as well as OPEX and CAPEX requirements, further increasing the business value of Alteon 5412.

Defense Pro

Radware's DefensePro is a real-time network attack prevention device that protects application infrastructures against network & application downtime, application vulnerability exploitation, malware spread, network anomalies, information theft and other emerging network attacks. DefensePro includes a set of security modules – Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), Network Behavioral Analysis (NBA), Denial-of-Service (DoS) Protection and Reputation Engine and is based on standard signature detection technology to prevent the known application vulnerabilities. The core of DefensePro is patent protected behavioral based real-time signatures technology that detects and mitigates emerging network attacks in real time such as zero-minute attacks, DoS/DDoS attacks and application misuse attacks. All without the need for human intervention and without blocking legitimate user traffic.

DefensePro incorporates Radware's emergency security service (ERT), a 24x7 service for customers facing DoS attacks or malware outbreaks. This service provides instantaneous, expert security support to restore network and service operational status. The emergency security service is staffed by experts with vast knowledge and experience of network threats, detection and mitigation, and in-depth experience of the DefensePro family of products.

Both Alteon 5412 and DefensePro are built on Radware's on demand infrastructure approach, which requires no forklift upgrade even as new business requirements emerge, as one only pays for the exact capacity currently required which prevents from over-spending on the initial solution purchased.
