Akamai Technologies has launched the Prolexic Network Cloud Firewall, enhancing its DDoS protection capabilities. This new tool allows customers to manage their own access control lists (ACLs) and provides improved flexibility in securing network edges.
As DDoS attacks increase, fueled by readily available tools on the dark web and more internet-connected devices, Akamai's Prolexic platform boasts a mitigation capacity of 20 Tbps. The service protects a diverse set of clients, including businesses and governments, against complex DDoS threats.
The firewall facilitates proactive defenses and efficient traffic management, enabling clients to react swiftly to threats. Akamai emphasizes that this is a significant feature enhancement, allowing users to implement security measures rapidly and effectively.
