September 2008 by Marc Jacob
Arbor Networks announced that it has been selected by leading research and consulting firm Frost & Sullivan as this year’s recipient of the 2008 Growth Strategy Excellence of the Year Award. Frost & Sullivan selected Arbor because the company has demonstrated excellence in implementing and sustaining growth within shipments, revenues and profitability.
In addition to lauding the company for the successful acquisition of
Ellacoya Networks in January, Frost & Sullivan recognises Arbor Networks
for the company’s continued product innovation. According to Frost &
Sullivan, Arbor products have been steadily enhanced to meet increased
bandwidth and user requirements, going from 3 Gbps to 10 Gbps and
supporting up to 100 million subscribers. This is a significant
challenge for any company, but is particularly challenging for a small
company like Arbor; the company retains an impressive customer base that
demonstrates and fortifies its products’ reliability, scalability and
ability to protect small, medium and very large networks.
Arbor solutions deliver best-in-class network security and visibility,
along with the power to improve profitability by deploying
differentiated, revenue-generating secure services.
Today, Arbor’s customers include more than 70 percent of the world’s
ISPs and many large enterprises. By employing flow-based and DPI
technologies, Arbor solutions measure and protect the entire network -
from the service provider core to the broadband edge.
Arbor has become a trusted partner of the Internet Service Provider
(ISP) community, developing numerous, innovative industry initiatives
that require cross-provider collaboration and sharing of anonymised
data. To date, Arbor has successfully launched the Fingerprint Sharing
Alliance (FSA), a first-of-its-kind industry initiative aimed at helping
network operators share Internet attack information automatically; the
annual Worldwide Infrastructure Security Report; and ATLAS, the world’s
first globally scoped threat analysis network, which uses technology
embedded in the world’s largest ISP networks to sense and report on
comprehensive worldwide threat intelligence.
