Cyber security and application delivery solutions provider, Radware, has launched its new Radware SecurePath cloud-based application security architecture for its Application Protection-as-a-Service offerings. For organizations seeking consistent, high-grade, and comprehensive security for applications deployed in multi- and hybrid-cloud settings, the novel architecture might be a good fit.
Radware SecurePath would meet the demand for cyber security, providing full application visibility and centralized security management regardless of where applications are delivered, thanks to a dual deployment architecture that deviates from typical industry paradigms.
Radware SecurePath would provide numerous cloud-based deployment options to fulfill a variety of business and technical requirements. Radware’s cloud application protection services may now be installed inline, where they act as a ‘middleman,’ or as an API-based, out-of-path service, thanks to this new design.
Radware’s API-based, out-of-path deployment is innovative and unique in that it allows application requests to proceed directly from the client to the application server without interruption. Radware’s innovative method would decrease complexity and latency, avoid routing changes, and boost availability by eliminating the requirement for any inline components from the data route.
“We are changing the industry paradigm around hybrid- and multi-cloud application security and solving the biggest security headaches organizations experience when migrating to the cloud,” said Gabi Malka, Chief Operating Officer (COO) at Radware. “Up until now, to secure applications companies have had to settle for varying levels of protection, inconsistent security policies, routing changes, fragmented logging and reporting, and more. The end result has been low quality of protection and high operational overhead. With the Radware SecurePath architecture, these are tradeoffs organizations no longer need to make. They can securely migrate applications to the public cloud without sacrificing visibility, protection quality, application performance, and operational efficiency.”
Cross-Cloud Visibility
The Radware SecurePath architecture, which is part of the company’s newly announced strategic cloud services effort, would provide a number of key benefits. The architecture would allow for the following:
- Through a single, centralized interface, provide comprehensive cross-cloud visibility and granular control of apps, making it simple to protect applications wherever they are placed
- Combine WAFs, a bot manager, API protection, L7 DDoS prevention, threat intelligence, and more to provide full application protection
- To eliminate threats to uptime and availability while offering maximum flexibility, deploy as an inline or API-based out-of-path SaaS service
- To protect client confidentiality and satisfy regulatory requirements, avoid exchanging SSL certificates with third-party businesses
