Arbor Networks completes acquisition of Ellacoya Networks
February 2008 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
Arbor Networks announces that it has completed its acquisition of Ellacoya Networks, a leading provider of carrier-class broadband service optimization solutions. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The new Arbor is addressing the most strategic issues for service providers – security and service control; assuring their future success with best-in class network protection and the means for delivering revenue-generating, differentiated secure services and service plans. The new Arbor provides intelligent visibility across the network (from core to broadband edge) and protection from network threats (routing issues, DDoS attacks, high bandwidth consuming applications like P2P and VoD).
In acquiring Ellacoya, Arbor Networks is delivering on its mission to deliver secure service control solutions for global networks. Arbor’s growth strategy is based on three key elements:
1) international market expansion;
2) organic revenue growth; and
3) acquiring new products and technologies that expand and augment its solution set.
