Currently, I only use Radware DDoS. I have been carrying Radware DDoS for about 10 years already.

Radware DDoS can mitigate attacks from layer 4 to 7, which makes the organization more secured with a dedicated DDoS solution.

Using Radware HTTP or HTTPS protection actually protects my application at the application layer. I am confident that the applications running on my system are well protected from different types of DDoS attack.

Radware DDoS is very effective in mitigating distributed denial-of-service attacks. The solution is very mature, and since Radware DDoS can detect attacks within 18 seconds, it really helps the organization against those types of attacks.

Using behavioral-based detection, Radware DDoS can detect even unknown or zero-day attacks and mitigate those attacks within 18 seconds. That is the advantage of the behavioral-based feature of Radware DDoS.

Radware DDoS can pinpoint whether users are legitimate or illegitimate, meaning the traffic. That is one of the key features that Radware DDoS has.

On the appliance, maybe the hardware could be improved. Most of Radware DDoS appliances are physical, so they could improve that aspect.

In terms of the system and the functionality, Radware DDoS is constantly upgrading.

I have been working in the industry for 25 years already.

Deploying Radware DDoS is very easy. It is an inline appliance, so I just put it in line and then configure it using its Cyber Controller. Cyber Controller is the management interface for the Radware DDoS device or appliance.

It does not take much time to set up. If I already have the information in place, it does not take much time to configure Radware DDoS.

Including the downtime of the customer or deploying it, it will take maybe an hour or an hour and a half if all necessary configuration is already pre-configured.

The only thing needed is mounting the appliance because it is heavy.

Radware DDoS definitely reduced my operational cost.

Radware DDoS response time is in real-time. As mentioned earlier, it can detect vulnerability or attacks within 18 seconds and can generate its own signatures within that period.

I would rate Radware DDoS a 9 out of 10.

My use case is that whatever traffic is coming from the internet, all that traffic is being monitored. It is sent to their scrubbing center, and from there, anything non-genuine gets blocked as per IOC, and the genuine traffic is sent to my inside applications.

Since implementing Radware DDoS Protection Service, I have been able to see DDoS attack sources and their origins. We didn't have the capacity to visualize DDoS attacks before. Blocking is also very fast compared to before, around 18 seconds of blocking time.

In my organization, I have observed many SQL injections and cross-site attacks, alongside heavy bandwidth utilization, which Radware DDoS Protection Service has been able to mitigate effectively.

Since implementing Radware DDoS Protection Service, I have experienced a transformation. I didn't have any DDoS mitigation tool previously, and my internet bandwidth was completely utilized by DDoS attacks. It is now filtering at the scrubbing center, especially during volumetric attacks.

Radware DDoS Protection Service ensures that legitimate users are not affected during DDoS attacks by communicating with my Anti-DDoS DefensePro tool. Based on configured policies, the scrubbing center can pass the traffic while already blocking the designated attackers' IPs.

Before implementing automation, my security monitoring team had to continually monitor DDoS attacks around the clock and send IPs for approval to the operations team for blocking, whereas now, it automatically blocks based on policies.

The time consumption in our processes has decreased compared to before because the internal ticketing process required approval from respective authorities, while now it is completely automated, allowing immediate blocking.

The solution effectively prevents attacks much earlier, making monitoring less burdensome than before.

Compared to other products, Radware DDoS Protection Service provides superior performance, as it blocks attacks within 18 seconds.

Previously, managing one incident took around three hours for complete approval and implementation, but now the Anti-DDoS tool immediately blocks particular IPs within 18 seconds.

With the SecOps dashboards for monitoring and reporting metrics, we can continuously monitor our Security Operations Center 24/7. We have absolute visibility.

The dashboard can provide historical information on objects and networks for three months, and we also have a backup tool that retains data for six years, per my industry policies.

The best feature of Radware DDoS Protection Service is the automation. Previously, manual intervention was necessary, and for incoming attacks, we had to inform the respective security and operations teams, whereas now, it is an automated process that blocks attacks based on policies by default.

This automation has significantly improved my organization's security compared to before. We didn't have that much automation previously, but now, with multiple policies, we can prevent attacks effectively.

I want to improve the blocking time; it should be within 10 seconds because 18 seconds allows multiple transactions in the financial industry. I want the blocking time to be better than 18 seconds.

I have been using the solution for the last six months.

Radware DDoS Protection Service is stable. For the last six months, I have not faced any issues, so it is a good solution.

In my opinion, there is no downtime experienced with Radware DDoS Protection Service due to external network redundancy.

It is scalable and user-friendly. My team members understand the policies and dashboards easily.

I would rate their customer support positively. Before using Radware, I experienced some delays with another product, but with Radware, we have immediate connections with high-level technical support.

I would rate Radware's customer support an eight out of ten because when we had initial configuration issues, support resolved the issues after a couple of escalations.

Before Radware DDoS Protection Service, I didn't have any DDoS solution at all, just manual processes.

The deployment of Radware DDoS Protection Service is very simple. It is user-friendly.

Radware DDoS Protection Service does not require separate maintenance, and there is minimal downtime during maintenance periods, such as during firmware upgrades of the Anti-DDoS tool.

There are five members in my team who work with Radware DDoS Protection Service.

I didn't check pricing of other providers in depth but verified with two, and found Radware to be significantly cheaper compared to F5.

I chose Radware because, as per Gartner, it is recognized in the market as the number one anti-DDoS solution.

I would recommend Radware DDoS Protection Service fully because I have observed improvements in bandwidth speed.

I would rate Radware DDoS Protection Service a ten out of ten.

We primarily use Radware DDoS Protection Service for ensuring network security and protecting against cyber threats. Our level two support engineers are hands-on with the service, utilizing it for network protection and incident visibility.

The most valuable feature of Radware DDoS Protection Service is its reporting capability. It allows us to see live attacks and understand the incoming traffic. The support from Radware is also exceptional, as they are always willing to jump on a call to help solve issues and improve our network design. Additionally, the service effectively blocks threats in real time, offering wide protection and preventing false positives.

I suggest improvements to the user interface to make it easier to use and to find the necessary data for analysis. Although the data is present, accessing it for analysis could be more simplified.

I have been using Radware DDoS Protection Service for all of the year and a half that I have been at the current company.

We have never encountered any issues with stability. There are no problems with lagging or crashing.

Scalability is well-supported by Radware. With their help, we have updated our network design to ensure scalability.

Radware's support is first class. Their responses are quick, and they are very engaging, providing assistance almost instantly when needed.

In my previous ISP, I experienced different services, but Radware stands out as a luxury to have.

The initial setup was difficult for me because I didn't receive training. The interface is advanced, and this contributed to the challenges I faced at the beginning. However, with Radware's support, I was able to learn and adapt quickly.

Radware pricing is on the high end, suitable more for larger organizations. They have different options, but I feel it's a costly solution.

I wasn't part of the decision-making process when Radware was chosen at my current company, but in my previous ISP, I had exposure to different services.

I recommend gathering the necessary budget to go with Radware services. The cheapest option may save money initially but could cost more in the long run. I rate the solution 10 out of 10.

We use the solution to detect all incoming and outgoing traffic to our environment and to determine if there are any anomalies or if it is attack-free.

We wanted a way to defend our network from all kinds of attacks, like UDP segmentation attacks, HTTPS requests, syn attacks, etc.

The best feature is the auto mitigation of the DefensePro solution. It automatically begins mitigation in milliseconds when an attack is detected.

During high-volume attacks, such as those during the Christmas and New Year periods, the solution protected our network perfectly, without any disturbance to our real-time users. It is really reliable.

We use the SecOps center to manage all the policies being created. All of our devices are managed from that console.

When it comes to user experience, the GUI is outstanding. The CLI interface is also amazing because it gives us a proper set of commands. When there is a small difference in the command, it doesn't transfer, which is absolutely amazing. It somehow neglects any error in the investigation or troubleshooting steps. Using the management to console is the best. It's usable, even for a beginner engineer. Anybody I give it access to can use it without any issues.

I would rate the cloud DDoS management system for analyzing attacks on my organization an 8.5 out of ten.

The best feature is the auto mitigation. It only takes a split millisecond to begin the mitigation of an attack.

We have seen a lot fewer false positives since implementing this solution. It has reduced the false positives by 25%.

The average amount of time it takes for the solution to detect an incident is around twelve to thirty seconds from the detection to the mitigation.

With Radware DDoS Protection Service, two people are able to manage the resource completely right now. We are able to do the protection. It has cut the resources a lot.

There's room for improvement in customization and integration. It would be better if routers and external firewalls could integrate with the solution. Additionally, when bugs are detected in a version during upgrades, there should be better communication about these bugs. They need to focus more on providing process documents highlighting bugs and their solutions.

Sometimes there is leakage in the network. Attacks go through without getting detected. It's a deployment issue, not a Radware problem. We don't use it to its fullest capacity.

Whenever there is an incident, it sometimes lacks the proper information about the attack, but most of the time, it's really reliable.

We have been using the solution since 2019. It was deployed for our telecommunication partners, and we started managing it in June 2022.

There has been some downtime, which affects the rating. I would rate stability as nine point five.

Scalability is excellent. On a scale of one to ten, it is a ten because we can use it to its maximum capability.

Our technical support is amazing. The expert and three-level tech support we get on the premium package are very thorough and knowledgeable.

I have not used any DDoS solution before Radware. Before Radware, this decision was made by higher management and the customer itself.

During the deployment, especially the recent migration to the cloud, it might have taken around five to six months. The upgrade process and the hardware delivery process take time.

We have around 26 data centers, but the digital solution is deployed into our four central sites, through which all the network from the outside network and our internal network is connected.

Whenever you are going to deploy Radware DDoS solution, plan for the next ten years. Consider your company's growth and ensure your deployment can last without needing upgrades.

On a scale from one to ten, I rate the solution as ten.

We use Radware's Cloud DDoS Protection Service to safeguard Cloud Graph with Layer Seven protection.

To mitigate Layer Seven DDoS attacks on our servers, we implemented Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service.

Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service does an excellent job at blocking threats quickly.

The Cloud DDoS management system provides clear and easy-to-understand visibility into incidents.

The management system is user-friendly.

The Cloud DDoS management system provides comprehensive insights and detailed visibility, simplifying attack analysis.

Before implementing Radware Cloud DDoS Protection, our organization experienced frequent downtime due to numerous attacks, particularly targeting specific assets. Migrating to Radware Cloud has eliminated downtime, allowing our business to operate uninterrupted even during attacks. The benefits were immediate, and we now receive timely notifications from the ERT team at the onset of any attack.

The web DDoS protection has significantly reduced our false positive rate.

Web DDoS Protection allows legitimate users to continue using our site even if it is under attack.

Radware immediately provides attack notifications, and the ERT team offers updates. If an attack disrupts our site, technical support can restore service within 20 hours.

I appreciate Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service for its responsive ERT team and the ease of migrating our sites to the platform. The intuitive user interface makes the entire process seamless and efficient.

The time it takes to upload a site to the cloud is critical when under attack. If a site is down, a quick response to migrate the site to the cloud is essential. It currently takes about 15 to 20 minutes for the process to complete, which should be minimized.

I have been using the Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service for one year.

Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service is stable, and we don't experience bugs or glitches.

I would rate the scalability of Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service ten out of ten.

The technical support responds quickly, but sometimes the resolution takes time.

The initial setup was complex due to our organization's network being complicated, not because of Radware Cloud. We had an issue with the DNS migration during the deployment. The deployment took around 20 minutes.

Two people from Radware and two people from our organization were involved, totaling four people.

I would rate Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service ten out of ten.

Our five-person team is the only people in our organization who use Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service.

Radware does the maintenance every two weeks.

I recommend Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service because the system works well, the web interface is intuitive and easy to use, and the technical support is okay.

We are using DefensePro for protecting our network and infrastructure from DDoS attacks.

DefensePro is very important for us for protecting our organization against DDoS threats and attacks. We are an ISO 27001-certified company. For compliance purposes, we have implemented DefensePro.

I am happy to see that we have not had any DDoS attacks. This solution has successfully protected us from attacks, and no one has been able to attack our network.

DefensePro is able to detect attacks in real-time. It has also helped reduce the number of false positives that our organization receives in response to attacks. We do have some false positives, but their number is low, around 10% to 20%.

DefensePro has definitely helped us reduce downtime associated with attacks.

We were able to see its benefits within three to six months of the deployment.

The product is good, but the company could improve its services by appointing customer success managers. This would ensure better interaction with customers and help resolve issues on both customer and supplier ends. Most other security product companies such as Palo Alto and Forcepoint appoint customer success managers to interact with customers and ensure that the product they have purchased is used perfectly. If we are facing any kind of issues in using the product or service, the customer success manager should get things right.

We have been using DefensePro for more than five years.

We have not found any issues with the stability of the solution.

DefensePro is quite scalable. Over the last five years, we have increased our infrastructure, and it has been working fine.

The customer service is fine. We have contacted their customer support, and they are satisfactory in terms of quality and responsiveness.

We have not used any alternatives to DefensePro.

The deployment was easy. We procured it through our partner. Our partner was able to deploy it perfectly. We did not face any issues in the deployment. It took around three months to fully deploy.

It does not require any maintenance from our side.

Two persons were involved in the implementation process.

The pricing is okay, and I do not have any concerns about the price.

To someone who is researching DDoS protection solutions but wants to go with the cheapest solution on the market, I would say that the product protection comes first and the cost comes second.

We have not evaluated any other solutions.

Now that DefensePro is available on the cloud, my advice would be to consider cloud adoption while implementing the solution.

I would rate DefensePro a ten out of ten. It is a good product.

As the new Director of Information Security with prior experience using Radware's Cloud DDoS Protection Service effectively, I'm advocating for its swift implementation from a product and budgetary standpoint. Having witnessed its value in both high-volume government and financial sectors, I believe these robust DDoS and WAF protections are no longer optional but an absolute necessity for our organization's security posture.

Real-time threat protection is incredibly valuable because malicious actors can now overwhelm web applications with attack requests using just a mobile device. Traditional Layer Three and Four defenses require large bandwidth or botnets, but attackers can now send thousands of requests per second. This makes real-time protection crucial. Unlike manual detection through portals, which can lead to delays and false positives, automated threat protection with high accuracy can make decisions instantly, reducing risks and workload.

The ever-present threat of hackers constantly scanning for vulnerabilities convinced me of the immediate value of Radware's Cloud DDoS Protection Service.

Implementing Web DDoS Protection eliminated the need for manual intervention due to false positives. After an initial learning period where all traffic is analyzed, the system effectively identifies legitimate traffic, significantly reducing the time spent approving or denying connections in the console.

The legitimate users do not even notice when there is an attack thanks to Web DDoS Protection.

Unlike many large companies with slow response times, Radware stands out for its speed. In the critical minutes following a cyberattack, we can reach a Radware expert by phone for immediate assistance. Their platform often automatically blocks the attack, or they'll quickly provide the necessary steps to remediate the situation.

The mean time to detection is between one and five minutes.

The mean time to remediation is within seconds.

Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service goes beyond the essential Layer Three and Layer Four protection, which are practically mandatory these days. While basic Layer Three and Four defense is crucial, Layer Seven application DDoS protection is where it shines. This is even more important with the increasing reliance on cloud-based applications.

The most promising feature we're considering implementing is container security. It offers superior protection by blocking threats directly at the container level, eliminating the need for a separate WAF. This means a container can sit in front of our application and handle Web DDoS mitigation, taking the burden off our traditional WAF. This approach has the potential to significantly improve overall security.

The rise of generative AI and machine learning in cyberattacks demands more advanced defense strategies. In this context, I'm interested in how Radware plans to leverage these same technologies to improve its detection and response capabilities.

I have been using the Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service for five years.

Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service is stable. We did not notice any latency, lagging, or crashing.

Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service is extremely easy to scale.

Radware's technical support was responsive and provided excellent guidance. Even their Level One support effectively assisted us in resolving our issues, which is uncommon these days.

The initial deployment was straightforward. Any obstacles were minor.

The deployment took 90 days to complete. While the Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service was installed quickly, the overall process took time because the system needed to learn our specific network environment, and our team had to learn how to operate and interpret the data it generates.

As part of the engagement, Radware provided the resources necessary for the implementation and we have plenty of expertise in-house.

While it's challenging to measure the exact return on investment from Radware's Cloud DDoS Protection Service, a successful attack on our company could incur at least five million dollars in damages, making this service a potentially valuable investment in preventing such a costly disruption.

Radware's switch to a pay-as-you-go model last year provides great flexibility. This means we only pay for what we use, allowing us to easily transition to alternative solutions like cloud services without being locked into unnecessary licenses. This approach is both fair and reasonable from a licensing perspective.

I would rate Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service ten out of ten.

While cheaper DDoS protection might seem attractive upfront, it may not offer the robust defense you need. These solutions may satisfy basic audit requirements but lack the capabilities of industry leaders like Radware. Studies show they struggle to defend against complex attacks. Ultimately, you might end up needing additional tools and personnel, and potentially suffer financial losses due to a successful attack – making the initially cheap option more expensive in the long run.

The Radware Cloud DDoS Protection Service is virtually maintenance-free; we only need to ensure it has the latest updates.

Radware's Cloud DDoS Protection Service is ideal for organizations under frequent DDoS attacks. While there's a learning curve for the platform to identify attack patterns, once it does, automatic blocking ensures minimal downtime within acceptable risk tolerances. Users remain unaffected as the service operates transparently in the background. For IT security teams, this translates to a significant reduction in DDoS workload, freeing them to focus on other security priorities.

One of our customers utilizes Radware DefensePro as their DDoS mitigation solution.

Radware DefensePro plays a vital role in safeguarding our network by protecting us from DDoS threats and attacks. It acts as the first line of defense, meticulously tracking incoming traffic to our website. This traffic is then passed to flow detectors within DefensePro's various defense flows, where it's rigorously checked and mitigated if necessary.

It's important for our compliance and privacy requirements that DefensePro doesn't decrypt our traffic or require we share certificates.

I would rate DefensePro's ability to detect DDoS attacks in real-time a nine out of ten.

DefensePro has reduced the number of false positives by 100 percent.

DefensePro has reduced downtime associated with attacks by 100 percent.

Radware DefensePro's most valuable feature lies in its ability to mitigate non-traffic attacks. This allows for clear visibility into natural packet flow and the packet filters are automatically applied to routers whenever suspicious behavior is detected.

We've been encountering a lack of updates in DefensePro. Currently, we're facing numerous bugs within our data solution. These bugs are impacting the failover process, and we're observing repeated crashes of the Elasticsearch container across various workflows.

There's room for improvement in the clarity of the feedback provided by the command service in the CLI. Specifically, the messages it gives when something happens to Docker containers could be more informative. For example, it might simply state that container states have changed, or it might mention the directory paths where container data is saved, but these messages don't provide enough detail. To access the files, users currently need to navigate through a complex directory structure, which isn't very user-friendly.

There is a need for more informative release notes. The current ones lack detail about what's included in the updates and what fixes have been implemented. This makes it difficult for users to understand the changes and how they might affect the experience.

I have been using Radware DefensePro for six months.

I would rate the stability of Radware DefensePro ten out of ten.

I would rate the scalability of Radware DefensePro nine out of ten.

The technical support is great.

Radware DefensePro is a bit on the expensive side.

While researching DDoS solutions and looking for the most affordable option, I'd recommend considering Radware DefensePro even though it might not be the cheapest because opting for the absolute cheapest solution can come with a lot of drawbacks. These budget options often have security vulnerabilities and hidden weaknesses that could leave networks more exposed during an attack. DefensePro offers additional features and stronger overall network protection, making it a more secure choice in the long run.

I would rate Radware DefensePro ten out of ten.

We have 226 firewalls and around 78 routers that are all protected by DefensePro.

Opting for a solution like Radware DefensePro is a strategic move for our telecom company, especially considering the critical nature of our subscriber self-care portal and the potential impact on the organization's image and the country as a whole.

Radware DefensePro is renowned for its advanced DDoS mitigation capabilities and has significantly enhanced the security posture of our infrastructure.

As a public sector unit, the stakes are high, and DefensePro's ability to handle sophisticated attacks provides an added layer of confidence. Its scalability ensures that our telecom infrastructure can adapt to changing traffic patterns and evolving threat landscapes.

DefensePro offers a multi-layered defense mechanism, combining behavioral analysis, signature detection, and real-time threat intelligence to identify and neutralize DDoS attacks promptly. Its adaptive nature allows it to evolve with emerging threats, ensuring that our self-care portal is shielded against the latest attack vectors.

The solution's granular traffic inspection capabilities enable it to differentiate between legitimate and malicious traffic, preventing service disruptions caused by volumetric, protocol, or application-layer DDoS attacks. This not only safeguards our portal but also contributes to maintaining the promised 100% uptime.

The solution has many valuable features, including a regular signature update. Radware is providing regular signature updates for the DefensePro solution, thus our organization is better equipped to handle any new threat vectors.

The solution's reporting and analytics features are quite useful. It offers valuable insights into ongoing and past attacks, aiding in post-incident analysis and continuous improvement of our cybersecurity strategy. This proactive approach aligns with the need to not only mitigate threats but also to learn from and refine our security posture over time.

They need to provide more granular control over security policies, allowing organizations to tailor configurations based on their specific needs and risk profiles. There is a restriction on the number of policies that can be defined. That count may be increased further to create more specific policies

They should integrate automated incident response capabilities to streamline the mitigation process and reduce response times during attacks.

It would be ideal if they could expand protocol support to cover emerging communication standards and ensure comprehensive protection against diverse attack vectors.

I've been using the solution for the last 11 years.

It is stable.

Scalability is an issue. It can be made more scalable by considering the growing DDoS attacks and web services.

We've always received support when needed.

I did not use a different solution.

It was a straightforward setup. We had no hiccups.

Implementation was through the vendor team. I would rate them nine on a scale of one to ten where one is the worst and ten is best.

It is a good option for those who are looking for on-premises protection against DDoS attacks.
