CHELMSFORD, MA--(Marketwire - November 24, 2008) - Arbor Networks, Inc., a leading provider of
secure service control solutions for global business networks, announced
today that Arcor, Germany's second-largest fixed-line telecommunications
company, has deployed the Arbor Peakflow SP platform ("Peakflow SP") to
enhance its network-wide visibility and protection against network threats
such as botnets and distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, as well
as to deliver a "clean pipes" managed service to enterprise customers.
Peakflow SP is delivering the pervasive network visibility, deep

identify, report and surgically mitigate DDoS and zero-day threats before
they impact critical business services. Arcor is also using Peakflow SP for
traffic engineering to improve network performance and to deliver revenue
generating managed DDoS detection and mitigation services to customers.
"We are particularly pleased to have a customer like Arcor, who uses our
innovative IP flow and DPI technologies to achieve both network
transparency at the macro level and application transparency at the micro
level," said Michael Tullius, Arbor's territory manager for Germany and
Switzerland.
