| Source: Narus
SAN FRANCISCO, CA and MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwire - April 8, 2008) - Narus, Inc., the
leader in traffic intelligence for the protection and management of the
world's largest IP networks, today announced that its NarusInsight™
Secure Suite (NSS) now protects TELKOMNet, the premier Internet service
provider in Indonesia, from distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) and other
malicious attacks. Narus, working closely with Cisco and Datacomm, an
Indonesian systems integrator, provides TELKOMNet with a comprehensive,
fully managed detection and mitigation security system. This announcement
comes on the heels of Narus' certification within the Cisco Technology
Developer Program.
"The growing risk and sophistication of DDoS attacks on the network
compelled us to look for a scalable, carrier-class solution to provide
real-time detection and robust mitigation capabilities," said Adriansjah
Nasution at TELKOMNet. "After evaluating many providers, we determined that
Datacomm and NarusInsight Secure Suite gave us the total network view that
we needed to protect our network. Additionally, it is designed for seamless
integration with Cisco Guard, providing us easy manageability and robust
mitigation capabilities."
System integrator Datacomm was able to quickly and easily deploy NSS across
TELKOMNet's network. Furthermore, Narus' industry-leading traffic
intelligence capabilities coupled with Cisco Guard's mitigation solution
was able to instantly address the security risks of DDoS attacks for
TELKOMNet.
"TELKOMNet's sophisticated security requirements closely mirror those of
many large carriers that are Narus' clients. By working with Cisco, Narus
was able to take advantage of our traffic intelligence capabilities to
deliver carrier-class security solutions that specifically addressed the
customer's needs," said Chris Swan, SVP of Sales and Marketing at Narus.
"Narus not only provides a carrier-class security solution highly
integrated with Cisco Guard, but one that offers security visibility for
all of Cisco's infrastructure and security products enabling a
defense-in-depth security philosophy."
Narus is a member of the Cisco Technology Developer Program. Through
participation in the program, NSS provides direct value to service provider
customers. The suite enables carriers to detect attacks, including day-zero
attacks, abuse and behavioral anomalies in real time and to direct actions
that can help prevent security breaches, attack propagation, loss of
productivity and network outages.
"Cisco supports open, standards-based architectures and shares a commitment
to interoperable solutions with developers such as Narus," said Cecil
Christie, director of marketing for the Campus Switching Systems Group at
Cisco. "Through this vision, the Cisco Technology Developer Program
delivers the power of choice to enterprises and service providers -- the
ability to extend the Cisco end-to-end architecture with our participants'
proven products and technologies."
