Nokia and NL-ix deploy Deepfield for the largest IXP-based anti-DDoS protection for enterprises across Europe
Nokia and NL-ix today announced the deployment of Nokia Deepfield Defender across NL-ix’s network, making it the biggest anti-DDoS solution for an internet exchange point (IXP) environment rolled out across Europe to better protect customers and operations by stopping DDoS attacks in seconds. Utilized in the NL-ix network, Nokia Deepfield Defender detects DDoS using AI-driven big data analytics and drives mitigation directly on the Nokia FP5-based routers, which NL-ix is deploying across their entire network. Nokia’s advanced, high-performance DDoS security solution detects all types of DDoS quickly and accurately and drives agile, network-based mitigation on the existing Nokia routers, with minimal or no impact on customer traffic. The solution ensures advanced DDoS security to stay ahead of the latest generation of threats, scaling protection and adding security-enhanced service offerings to enterprises, especially those operating in critical industry segments.
"This is a big win as it’s not only the first security-enhanced service offering, but also the first anti-DDoS solution deployed by an IXP, demonstrating our place as a key innovator in Europe. Our DDoS protection will strive for zero downtime for enterprises, providing security across their entire area of operations. Our solution performs mitigation directly on Nokia routers instead of using a remote, dedicated scrubbing center, which maintains low latency and keeps transport costs down. As a result, we can act as a “one-stop-shop” for Europe-wide connectivity and security, where our customers don’t need to work with multiple parties or have complex arrangements to be protected by a third party."
