DDoS Mitigation, Application Security and Performance: Simplified

Most organizations know that they need application security, but not all organizations have the time, money, or experience to maintain the highly sophisticated and customized rules that traditional application security tools provide. Web Application Protector solves that problem by providing an intuitive administrator interface, pre-configured rule groupings, automatic rule updates, and self-serve installation. The finished product is simple enough to bring application security to organizations who might otherwise leave their applications exposed. Even better, the organizations that use Web Application Protector get added benefits from the Akamai Intelligent Platform; including the ability to grow without adding hardware, site delivery and performance capabilities, rate controls, and the protection from unwanted traffic through the reverse web proxy.

Simple, Safe and Secure

Enterprise Application Access is a new approach to remote access. It provides a unique, secure and more convenient alternative to traditional remote access technologies, such as VPNs, RDP and proxies. With Enterprise Application Access, no one can get to applications directly because they are hidden from the Internet and public exposure. A unique cloud architecture closes all inbound firewall ports while providing authenticated end users access to only their specific applications. Enterprise Application Access integrates data path protection, identity access, application security and management visibility and control into a single service.
