Radware to Deliver Attack Mitigation System Solution To Tier 1 Wireless Carrier in North America

Solution Based at the Network Perimeter Will Help Protect Against The New Wave of Multi-Level Attacks

MAHWAH, New Jersey, December 12, 2011/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

    Radware [http://www.Radware.com ] (NASDAQ: RDWR), a leading provider of application
delivery [http://www.radware.com/Products/ApplicationDelivery/default.aspx ] and
application security
[http://www.radware.com/Products/ApplicationNetworkSecurity/default.aspx ] solutions for
virtual and cloud data centers, today announced a $2 million sale of its Attack Mitigation
System (AMS) security solution to a leading Tier 1 wireless carrier in North America.

    Radware's AMS solution will integrate the carrier's existing point security
capabilities - such as firewall and proxy protection, signature-based intrusion
prevention, anti-spam gateways and scrubbing center denial of service mitigation - into an
holistic attack mitigation system. The carrier chose Radware AMS for its ability to
deliver synergy to multiple protection modules as part of one system while providing
unified reporting and compliance. As a result, the Radware AMS solution will help the
carrier defend against the increasingly sophisticated multi-vector attacks that strike
network IT assets at multiple layers, large scale botnet attacks, and attackers that
imitate real users in order to misuse services and application resources.

    Under the agreement, Radware will begin installing the system in January 2012.

    "While the customer's initial focus was firewall protection, managers felt relying on
individual point security tools alone for network infrastructure security were not enough
to protect against the new wave of sophisticated cyber attacks," said Ron Meyran,
director, security product marketing, Radware. "Network equipment and applications
infrastructures are typically the main targets of these multi-layered attacks, and
Radware's AMS offers a unique solution to integrate their existing security tools into an
holistic strategy, achieving a real-time, proactive, attack mitigation system."

    Radware's AMS is a real-time network and application attack mitigation solution that
protects the application infrastructure against network and application downtime,
application vulnerability exploitation, malware spread, information theft, Web service
attacks and Web defacement. It contains a protection layer with security modules including
denial-of-service (DoS) protection, network behavioral analysis (NBA), intrusion
prevention system (IPS), reputation engine and Web application firewall (WAF) to fully
safeguard networks, servers and applications against known and emerging network security
threats.

    Radware supplements these capabilities by adding the human factor - the professional
security consultants of its Emergency Response Team (ERT) who are available around the
clock. As literal 'first responders' to cyber attacks, Radware's ERT members gained their
extensive experience by successfully dealing with some of the industry's most notable
hacking episodes, providing the knowledge and expertise to mitigate the kind of attack a
business's security team may never have handled.

    Additionally, by combining these protections in a single, integrated solution, Radware
AMS reduces capital expenses by avoiding the need to install multiple point security
tools, and it saves on operational expenses by reducing the complexity of collecting data
and managing the system.
