What is Akamai Enterprise Threat Protector?

Enterprise Threat Protector functions as a cloud-based secure web gateway (SWG), empowering security teams to ensure safe Internet access for users and devices regardless of their geographic location, while addressing the limitations associated with conventional appliance-based systems. By leveraging the globally distributed Akamai Intelligent Edge Platform, it actively identifies, prevents, and mitigates a range of targeted threats, including malware, ransomware, phishing, DNS data exfiltration, and advanced zero-day attacks. The platform's real-time visualization capability showcases the phishing, malware, and command & control threats that Akamai successfully blocks on behalf of its clients, drawing on its extensive understanding of both DNS and IP traffic patterns. This functionality allows organizations to efficiently protect web traffic across all corporate locations and for remote users by simplifying operations through a cloud-based secure web gateway (SWG). In addition, Enterprise Threat Protector not only enhances the overall cybersecurity posture of organizations but also facilitates a more streamlined approach to threat management, ensuring comprehensive defense against the ever-evolving landscape of digital threats. By adopting this advanced solution, businesses can better navigate the complexities of online security in today's digital environment.

What is Akamai Prolexic?

Akamai Prolexic is an enterprise DDoS protection platform for defending networks, applications, and internet-facing infrastructure against high-volume and sophisticated distributed denial-of-service attacks. Organizations can deploy Prolexic as an always-on or on-demand cloud service, an on-premises solution powered by Corero, or a hybrid configuration combining cloud and local protection. The service routes incoming network traffic through its defense infrastructure and applies proactive or customized mitigation controls to identify potentially malicious activity. Attack traffic is filtered before reaching protected systems, while legitimate traffic is delivered to its intended destination to help prevent outages and performance degradation. Prolexic operates 32 global anycast scrubbing centers with more than 20 Tbps of dedicated DDoS defense capacity and is supported by Akamai's network capacity of more than 1 Pbps. Dynamic mitigation controls can scale protection across IPv4 and IPv6 traffic flows, while Prolexic Network Cloud Firewall provides network-wide ACL and firewall rules. Prolexic over Akamai Direct Connect provides another connectivity option, creating a direct and private connection between customer origins and Akamai while supporting large traffic packets through GRE tunnels. Akamai offers a 100% Prolexic platform availability SLA and an industry-leading zero-second mitigation SLA, along with 24/7/365 support and optional managed SOC services. More than 225 frontline SOCC defenders support the service and can work with organizations before, during, and after DDoS incidents. Akamai states that Prolexic's proactive mitigation controls stop more than 98% of attacks immediately and that the platform has protected customers against some of the largest and most sophisticated DDoS attacks recorded on the internet.
