Room For Improvement

Enhance Link11 with intuitive interfaces, real-time alerts, automated reporting, improved WAF, unified panels, and better bot management.
Radware DDoS needs improved scalability, cloud integration, and user support with a focus on AI, ease of use, and pricing.
There should be improved bot management integration that mitigates bot-based DDoS attacks completely.
Their Cyber Security Controller portal, including its GUI and dashboard, could be more intuitive so CXOs can easily understand them.

Radware DDoS pricing varies by features and network traffic, offering flexible plans but is costly, ideal for large enterprises.
The pricing is good, as we recently renewed our licenses from Radware.
I didn't check pricing of other providers in depth but verified with two, and found Radware to be significantly cheaper compared to F5.
Radware pricing is on the high end, suitable more for larger organizations.

Offers flexibility with a kill switch for bypassing Reblaze if needed and provides a reliable Layer 7 defense against attacks
There is still some room for improvement when it comes to bot management from Reblaze because they are relatively new compared to other vendors in the town. AWS WAF, the Web Application Firewall from AWS, has a vast database of bad IP addresses due to its long-standing presence in this business. Reblaze, being a new entrant, is still building its database of bad IP addresses and malicious systems. So, Reblaze needs to work on that aspect. But other than that, I don't think scaling Reblaze has been an issue. There were some initial glitches, but they were all sorted out. So currently, I would say that the bot management and the database are areas they should focus on for further improvement.

Multi-layered defense ensures robust protection and optimized resources
Radware DDoS Protection Service is valued for its multi-layered defense protection, always-on and on-demand service, zero-day protection with adaptive behavioral-based mitigation, DNS and infrastructure protection, and SSL attack mitigation. The solution's multi-layer protection covers volumetric, protocol-based, and application layer attacks. They offer a very effective response against DNS attacks. Regarding behavior-based detection technology, in terms of real-time detection, it has been able to reduce false positives. We have pretty good experience with them. The geolocation is pretty good for an organization such as ours. We can block anything from certain regions, like North Korea or China, etc, cetera. It works alongside machine learning. They can update policies globally in less than ten seconds, which really helps with false positives. During a DDoS attack, it ensures legitimate users are not affected. We're working on a hybrid solution, so we have Defence Pro devices on our side and unlimited mitigation capabilities on the cloud.
