LEBANON, NH--(Marketwired - Oct 16, 2014) -  Leading network security software provider FlowTraq announced today it has joined the A10 Security Alliance, driven by A10 Networks ( NYSE : ATEN ), a technology leader in application networking. The A10 Security Alliance is an ecosystem of leading security and networking companies that are working together to mitigate threats and automate security operations. By validating interoperability with products from leading security vendors, the A10 Security Alliance has developed specialized solutions for data centers that deliver critical best-of-breed security capabilities required to eliminate and detect advanced threats, limit security incident costs, and reduce the cost of security operations.

The A10 Security Alliance empowers organizations to solve today's top security challenges with integrated and tested solutions. FlowTraq was selected as an A10 Security Alliance partner for its advanced detection and analysis capabilities. The A10 Thunder TPS's advanced traffic-shaping expertise, integrated with FlowTraq's high-volume network traffic analysis capabilities yields one of the industry's fastest automated DDoS mitigation solutions. A10 Thunder Series products, in conjunction with A10 Security Alliance members' products offer solutions covering SSL visibility to detect advanced threats, authentication for federated security and single-sign-on, automated SSL certificate management and protection, threat and URL intelligence for effective policy decisions, and more.

"FlowTraq has selected A10 Networks to take our network traffic security capabilities one step further," said Dr. Vincent Berk, CEO of FlowTraq. "When FlowTraq detects that your critical services are under attack, FlowTraq informs the A10 Networks Thunder TPS device through its API of the attack type and the intended target. Thunder TPS then redirects the malicious traffic to itself, and forwards the cleaned traffic back in the network."

"To combat cyber threats, organizations must develop an integrated defense that incorporates attack protection, forensics, authentication, visibility, and more," said Raj Jalan, Chief Technology Officer at A10 Networks. "The A10 Security Alliance provides an ecosystem of validated and integrated solutions that helps our customers architect secure data centers and improve efficiency."
