Expands relationship, enabling Cloud DDoS Protection for organizations across Latin America
Radware® (NASDAQ: RDWR), a global leader in application security and delivery solutions for multi-cloud environments, today announced it signed a managed security service provider (MSSP) agreement with Cirion Technologies. Based on the agreement, Cirion Technologies, a more than 30-year veteran and leading provider of digital infrastructure, plans to invest in Radware’s industry-leading Cloud DDoS Protection Service and offer it as a service to customers across Latin America. The MSSP agreement represents an expansion of an existing channel relationship between Radware and Cirion.
Driven by its commitment to innovate and anticipate, Cirion was looking to further enhance its security offering and deliver even more advanced network protection for its customers. Today, Cirion is recognized as one of the few Pan Latin American networks, present in 20 countries with more than 5,500 Latin American and multinational clients. In addition, the company operates 18 data centers across Latin America and more than 95 direct connections to carriers and cloud providers.
“Through our strategic partnership with Radware, we intend to offer our customers a premium security-as-a-service solution that delivers automatic protection, faster mitigation, better accuracy, and excellence in service and support,” said Eduardo Freitas, senior director of data products at Cirion. “Radware’s unique and customized MSSP model not only enables us to get into market faster, but also meet the DDoS protection needs of a wide range of customers across the region—from small businesses and enterprises to downstream internet service providers.”
To help MSSPs extend their services and scale support across thousands of customers, Radware offers a carrier-grade scalable platform and fully integrated cloud portal. The multi-tenant portal centralizes and simplifies attack management and real-time monitoring as well as delivers detailed analytics and easy-to-read reporting for critical infrastructure assets.
As an existing Radware channel partner, Cirion also offers its customers Radware’s Cloud Application Protection Services. This includes Radware’s industry leading web application firewall, bot management, and API and client-side protection services. Customers can manage the integrated best-in-suite solution through a single pane of glass, helping to reduce operational costs and prevent zero-day attacks.
“We look forward to an expanded relationship with Cirion, helping them open new revenue streams while delivering state-of-the-art cloud DDoS protection for organizations across Latin America,” said Arie Simchis, Radware’s regional director in Latin America. “As cyber attacks increase in sophistication and grow exponentially in number, more organizations are opting for hosted security services and entrusting leading providers like Cirion with protecting their networks and applications.”
Radware’s AI-powered Cloud DDoS Protection Service is designed to automatically identify and surgically block harmful traffic without disrupting legitimate traffic. Using advanced behavioral algorithms, the solution instantly adapts DDoS defenses based on the specific attacker. It not only mitigates DDoS attacks but also safeguards the network, optimizes application performance, and maintains availability during attacks, including the latest wave of layer 7 Web DDoS attacks.
Radware has received numerous awards for its application and network security solutions. Industry analysts such as Aite-Novarica Group, Forrester Research, Gartner, GigaOm, KuppingerCole, and Quadrant Knowledge Solutions continue to recognize Radware as a market leader in cyber security.
