Protecting DNS Infrastructure

The domain name system (DNS) is considered by many networking professionals to be the lifeblood of the Internet. To the common Internet user, DNS is transparent; users simply type the human friendly name of where they want to go into their Web browser (i.e., www.arbornetworks.com) and the site appears. In reality, the world’s DNS infrastructure is actually a very complex system of relationships, DNS registrars and a well-known hierarchy of distributed servers. Though the Internet’s overall DNS infrastructure is designed for fault tolerance, any individual node is actually very fragile and susceptible to simple administrative errors or malicious attacks such as Compromised DNS Administration, DNS Cache Poisoning, or DNS Amplification Attacks which exploit known DNS and IP vulnerabilities Read more...

Managing Traffic by Subscriber and Applications

The Arbor Networks eSeries is a carrier-class solution for broadband service optimization that supports millions of subscribers. The eSeries enables service providers to dramatically increase the return on their network investment by managing traffic at both the subscriber and application level. Based on deep packet inspection (DPI) technology , the eSeries also enables carriers to identify and manage each packet of network traffic—by subscriber and application—in order to prioritize network activity, enforce policies and develop new service plans. Read more...

Usage-Based & Tiered Services

Many network service providers rely on subscriber usage quotas to control costs and increase revenue. But determining where to set these quotas is often a trial-and-error process based on incomplete or anecdotal data. Without the ability to measure usage on a per-subscriber and per-application basis, such quotas are hit-or-miss. Read more...

Protecting and Managing the Mobile Data Infrastructure and Services

As mobile broadband networks become more like fixed broadband networks, mobile operators will undoubtedly experience the same threats to their mobile subscribers and infrastructure as fixed broadband operators. For example, Internet-sourced DDoS attacks that target specific mobile infrastructure (i.e., SGSN, GGSN, DNS, etc.) are starting to become more common. And it's only a matter of time before mobile operators become plagued with compromised or infected mobile broadband subscribers who threaten to impact mobile services and their underlying infrastructure. Read more...

Mobile Subscriber Visibility and Management

In today’s wireless world, market demand for mobile broadband services has reached global proportions, driven by the growing use of smartphones or PCs with mobile dongles and the appeal of audio, video streaming and gaming applications. These broadband applications are increasing the traffic on mobile networks. More traffic should lead to more revenue—but in some cases, it’s not. Without visibility into subscriber behavior, operators lack the insight to manage bandwidth demand and bill accurately. Read more...
