Chelmsford, Mass., June 15, 2010 – Arbor Networks, Inc., a leading provider of security and network management solutions for global business networks, announced today that it has formed a strategic reseller partnership with Probil, Turkey’s largest independent IT solutions group. Probil works with a broad portfolio of market-leading technology suppliers, creating solutions for Service Providers, Hosting, Fixed and Mobile operators.

Probil will be selling the full line of Arbor Networks solutions, including the Peakflow SP platform (“Peakflow SP”), the de facto standard for IP flow-based network security, visibility and analysis. The vast majority of the world’s leading service providers rely on Arbor’s Peakflow SP to proactively fend off malicious threats, prevent distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks and strengthen the quality of their service. In addition to being their security platform of choice, Peakflow SP is enabling customers to reduce costs by improving IPv4 and IPv6 traffic engineering and operational efficiencies.

Tightly integrated with Peakflow SP is Arbor’s Threat Management System (TMS) that automatically detects and surgically removes only attack traffic while maintaining legitimate business traffic. Without the ability to mitigate only the attack traffic, network operators are forced to complete the attack for the attackers, shutting down services for not just the intended victim, but others using the same shared infrastructure in data center and cloud environments.

Arbor’s enterprise solution, Peakflow X, is available in an appliance-based version as well as a virtualized version, and provides the pervasive and intelligent network visibility that’s needed to monitor the external security threats, internal network usage, and more than 100 bandwidth-sapping applications that can jeopardize network performance and business success. Peakflow X leverages IP flow technology in existing network devices. It analyzes flow statistics to define normal network behavior. Then, in real-time, its embedded Network Behavioral Analysis (NBA) technology identifies abnormal activity that can indicate a developing security attack long before its signature is created. Since Peakflow X detects network anomalies and threats using NBA technology, it’s complementary to signature-based security products such as IDS/IPS, anti-virus and firewalls.

More than forty of the world’s leading service providers are utilizing Peakflow SP and Peakflow X platforms to deploy network-based managed security offerings in an easy and scalable way to protect their enterprise customers’ networks from DDoS and other cyber attacks that disrupt corporate networks and business continuity.

"For network operators offering a managed service or multi-tenant infrastructure like a data center, attack mitigation is critical to making sure services are available, SLA’s are met and reputations are protected," said Necmi Ön, chief technology officer of Probil. "Probil is excited to be able to offer our customers the full Arbor Networks suite of solutions that are protecting the world’s largest and most sophisticated networks."

"For more than 20 years Probil has been delivering solutions to operators across Turkey. They understand the most critical issues that enterprises, cloud and network service providers are facing today," said Ivan Straniero, Arbor Networks territory manager. “Arbor’s detection and mitigation products are an ideal fit in their portfolio."
