Challenge	The European manufacturing company had a complex, globally-distributed network comprised of data centers, remote offices and cloud-hosted applications. Each asset type had different requirements and faced different threat profiles. Traditional DDoS mitigation vendors did not have the flexibility or scope to offer full, cost-effective protection for all asset types. The company's previous security vendors had suffered a major breach the previous year. The company was looking for a solution that could provide protection for all its assets, including four globally distributed data centers running mission-critical applications, 150 cloud applications hosted on a large public-cloud provider, and three-dozen remote sales offices spanning the globe.

About Customer	The customer is a well-known European manufacturing company. As a well-known household brand, the customer’s network was both globally distributed and complex. Different infrastructure assets had different requirements under various operational scenarios, resulting in each asset requiring different protection coverage. The company's network and data center infrastructure was as diverse and complex as it was far flung. It included four globally distributed data centers running mission-critical applications, 150 cloud applications hosted on a large public-cloud provider, and three-dozen remote sales offices spanning the globe.

Solution	Radware implemented a combination of cloud and premise-based DDoS and WAF solutions. The data centers were protected with a hybrid DDoS solution, combining a premise-based appliance with scalable cloud protection; the cloud-based applications were protected using an ‘always-on’ cloud service and cloud WAF; and non-critical remote sites were protected with Radware’s on-demand cloud DDoS service. Radware was able to satisfy the needs of the customer via the breadths of its offering, which could tailor specifically to the needs of the customer’s elaborate network topology. Radware’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) provided managed services for both premise-based and cloud components, as well as attack-time SOC support in times of need, giving the customer a single point-of-contact.

Challenge

The European manufacturing company had a complex, globally-distributed network comprised of data centers, remote offices and cloud-hosted applications. Each asset type had different requirements and faced different threat profiles. Traditional DDoS mitigation vendors did not have the flexibility or scope to offer full, cost-effective protection for all asset types. The company's previous security vendors had suffered a major breach the previous year. The company was looking for a solution that could provide protection for all its assets, including four globally distributed data centers running mission-critical applications, 150 cloud applications hosted on a large public-cloud provider, and three-dozen remote sales offices spanning the globe.

About Customer

The customer is a well-known European manufacturing company. As a well-known household brand, the customer’s network was both globally distributed and complex. Different infrastructure assets had different requirements under various operational scenarios, resulting in each asset requiring different protection coverage. The company's network and data center infrastructure was as diverse and complex as it was far flung. It included four globally distributed data centers running mission-critical applications, 150 cloud applications hosted on a large public-cloud provider, and three-dozen remote sales offices spanning the globe.

Solution

Radware implemented a combination of cloud and premise-based DDoS and WAF solutions. The data centers were protected with a hybrid DDoS solution, combining a premise-based appliance with scalable cloud protection; the cloud-based applications were protected using an ‘always-on’ cloud service and cloud WAF; and non-critical remote sites were protected with Radware’s on-demand cloud DDoS service. Radware was able to satisfy the needs of the customer via the breadths of its offering, which could tailor specifically to the needs of the customer’s elaborate network topology. Radware’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) provided managed services for both premise-based and cloud components, as well as attack-time SOC support in times of need, giving the customer a single point-of-contact.

Impact #1	With the flexibility provided by Radware, the enterprise manufacturing company was able to safeguard all assets in its network leveraging Radware’s high-quality DDoS and WAF protections.
Impact #2	Radware’s security services blocked several major attacks during the high-profile event, with no impact on availability or performance of any assets.
Impact #3	The company received a number of attack ransom emails in the months leading up to the event. Once the event started, the company experienced an immediate uptick in attacks. In particular, there were massive attack spikes during the opening weekend of the event, as well as during the quarter-finals round.
