The growing role of the ADC in security -

Computer security can not be specifically addressed by a single product or solution. Instead, security should be integrated into the fabric of IT -. Up and down the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI), between the scene and cloud data centers, and through interconnected networks

This complex, the distributed nature of IT security is exactly why application delivery controller (ADC) takes an ever-increasing role in securing mobile devices, web infrastructure and networks. CDA is uniquely positioned to serve as the primary defense against security threats against malware, denial of service (DOS), and other malicious activities targeting the Web layers and applications.

Let's take a look a closer look at three scenarios where the ADC is critical for safety.

denial of service attacks

for the first time in several years, there has been a surge of denial of service (DOS). In the past, these attacks were directed against the networks of large companies. Now we are seeing the emergence of attacks targeting small businesses and the upper layers of the IT stack. Intruders use low bandwidth attacks disguised as legitimate transactions to bypass the firewall and intrusion prevention-based measures.

The organizations need a better way to prevent these attacks, and the ADC can provide the right solution. Find out how Citrix NetScaler can help protect against DOS attacks in the report, Citrix NetScaler. Powerful Attack Defense against DOS

Mobile and Backend infrastructures [

We all expect the same security, performance and reliability of our mobile apps as we do with native applications. But these applications do not work only on our mobile devices. They are powered by a variety of backend infrastructure -. A hidden layer, but critical components of the application and network devices
