SDN-Based DDoS Attack Prevention with Radware’s DefenseFlow

Radware’s DefenseFlow is a networkwide distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack prevention and cybersecurity solution that supports SDN/OpenFlow networks by providing new ways of detecting and mitigating networkwide, multivector cyberattacks. DefenseFlow is the first SDN application that programs networks for DDoS security and provides automated networkwide mitigation services and defense against any DDoS attack in real time. Overcome the challenges associated with networkwide security via a single, automated security solution that leverages network technologies to provide attack mitigation as a native network service.

Radware delivers tremendous value in the form of a broad suite of DDoS mitigation solutions to meet the specific needs of any enterprise—solutions that are integrated, and that leverage the latest cutting-edge DDoS mitigation technologies to stop even the most determined threat actors.”

Radware’s approach to addressing the challenges facing service providers involves three main components:

Distributed Detection

Able to detect a single threat across the entire network utilizing dedicated security probes, existing network elements and additional 3rd party security components. SDN DDoS attack defense and detection capabilities include both infrastructure and application DDoS threats utilizing Layer 4-7 inline/SmarTap solution.

Distributed Mitigation

Able to mitigate SDN DDoS attacks and other cyber attacks at the optimal location utilizing different mitigation components.

Centralized Control

As the facilitator of the distributed network, it is able to collect input from Distributed Detection elements and then aggregate, correlate and analyze in the context of the protected service.
