Protects critical infrastructure from alerts but GUI needs improvement
If we consider a default setup without customization, I would rate it a ten out of ten. However, the initial setup can be time-consuming for specific requirements needing customization, possibly requiring extensive fine-tuning. With the detailed and specific features we require, along with the need for tuning and customization, the process can indeed take several weeks. Allot DDoS Secure's case of integration with existing infrastructure is not too hard.

Behavioral analytics and AI automation enhance security and performance
It provides protection for network applications and infrastructure level, and the best part is the behavioral-based detection that Radware provides us, along with real-time signature creation. We also have some applications where we have botnets running, and it provides protection against them. Web DDoS targets the application layer, which is layer seven of the OSI model. For that, we focus on the Web DDoS technique for bot-based attacks because we have many applications where bots are running. We also face many random URL attacks every day, and it protects against malicious or suspicious random URL attacks. It ensures both security and performance. It achieves this by learning behavior patterns and providing protection without blocking normal traffic. These are some of the features I am particularly satisfied with in this product.
