The security industry celebrated its 13th Annual 2017 Global Excellence Awards in San Francisco by honoring excellence in every facet of the industry, including products, people behind the successes and best companies. More than 40 judges from a broad spectrum of industry voices from around the world participated and their average scores determined the 2017 Global Excellence Awards Finalists and Winners.
Radware's Emergency Response Team (ERT) is an emergency service that can stop DDoS attacks quickly. Designed to provide 24x7 security services for customers facing a denial-of-service (DoS) or a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack or a malware outbreak, the ERT delivers instantaneous, expert security assistance and DDoS prevention in order to stop DDoS attacks and restore network and service operational status. The ERT is staffed by DDoS protection service experts that have vast knowledge and experience with network threats, their detection and mitigation, and in-depth experience of the Attack Mitigation Service (AMS) family of products.
Radware's Attack Mitigation System (AMS) integrates on-premise detection and mitigation with 24/7 support. The service can be extended to cover web-application security and SSL-based attack mitigation, providing robust end-to-end protection against multi-vector network and application attacks, including those spawned by masses of hacked Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

- Gold winner in Apps for the Radware Connect App
