Radware Receives INTERNET TELEPHONY(R) Magazine's Twelfth Annual Product of the Year Award

MAHWAH, N.J.; Feb. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Radware (Nasdaq: RDWR), the leading provider of integrated application delivery solutions for business-smart networking, today announced that Technology Marketing Corporation's (TMC®) INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine has named the Alteon 5412® and DefensePro® as recipients of its 2009 Product of the Year Award.  

"It's an extraordinary achievement for two of our leading products to be recognized by TMC and we're honored to have received this industry award," said Amir Peles, Chief Technology Officer, Radware. "We're committed to offering technology solutions that provide maximum network performance and efficiency, and with Alteon and DefensePro we have two products that businesses rely on to keep up with the changing demands of the global marketplace."    

Powered by a state-of-the-art, custom-designed hardware platform and its flexible and optimized distributed processing software architecture, Virtual Matrix Architecture (VMA), the Alteon 5412 ensures the best user experience and the fastest response time for mission-critical applications, resulting in effective, continuous business operation. Extended throughput capacity by up to 20 Gbps, the Alteon 5412 further provides breakthrough performance

Radware's DefensePro is a real-time Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) that maintains business continuity by protecting IP infrastructure against existing and emerging network-based threats – including non-vulnerability and zero-minute attacks - that cannot be detected by traditional IPS' such as: application misuse threats, SSL attacks and VoIP service misuse. DefensePro features full protection against vulnerability-based threats through proactive signature updates, which safeguard against already known attacks including worms, Trojans, Bots, SSL-based attacks and VoIP threats.

Both of these products 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.

"INTERNET TELEPHONY is proud to grant Radware a 2009 Product of the Year Award for their Alteon 5412 and DefensePro. Radware has proven its commitment to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. "We're happy to recognize and honor Radware for their development of IP communications technology.  We look forward to more innovative solutions from them in the future."

A complete list of Product of the Year winners is published in the February 2010 issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine, (www.itmag.com). INTERNET TELEPHONY has been the authority in IP communication since 1998™.
