‘Pravail Security Analytics’ introduced by Arbor Networks

Arbor Networks Inc., a provider of DDoS and advanced threat protection solutions for enterprise and service provider networks, on March 18 introduced Pravail Security Analytics for advanced threat detection, incident response and security forensics.

The technology delivering this solution was developed by Packetloop, a Sydney, Australia-based innovator in the field of Big Data security analytics that was acquired by Arbor in September 2013.

“Arbor is able to offer enterprise security teams the richest set of data regarding the activities happening on their network,” said Arbor Networks President Matthew Moynahan. “Pravail Security Analytics is a powerful solution that will allow our customers to see attacks on their global networks faster and in more detail than seen before. We’re focused on bringing meaningful context to massive amounts of data so that security teams can focus on the critical few, react faster and identify the threats lurking within their network environment before they impact the business.”

The attack intelligence that keeps Pravail Security Analytics at the cutting edge of network security comes from Arbor’s ATLAS Active Threat Level Analysis System. ATLAS is a collaboration with nearly 300 service providers who share anonymous data with Arbor, up to 70TB/sec of global Internet traffic.

This collective view delivers globally scoped insight into the attack landscape. This data set is analyzed by Arbor’s security research team who then develops detection methodologies; and creates fingerprints that identify threats and malicious activity occurring within the enterprise.
