MARLBOROUGH, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Corero Network Security (LSE: CNS), a leading provider of real-time security solutions against DDoS attacks, today announced it has entered into a technology alliance partnership with Juniper Networks. This relationship enables the combination of Corero’s real-time DDoS protection product, the SmartWall® Threat Defense System (TDS), with the Juniper Networks® MX Series routers and QFX Series switches to create highly scalable DDoS mitigation solutions that serve as an integral component of service provider and enterprise networks.

Juniper Networks’ routing and switching solutions are utilized in more than 50 percent of Corero’s real-time DDoS protection deployments, with the largest joint customer operating 720Gbps of DDoS mitigation capacity. As a result of Corero’s relationship with Juniper, organizations can take advantage of these proven solution designs for highly scalable and flexible DDoS mitigation capacity at the enterprise or provider network edge.
