The company revealed that, together, A10 Detector, aGalaxy TPS and A10 Mitigator comprise a complete A10 Thunder TPS solution, which enables IT organizations to quickly detect, manage and mitigate attacks. When an attack is detected via an analysis of user traffic by A10 Detector, aGalaxy TPS management is then notified, which triggers A10’s Mitigator with the recommended mitigation templates resulting in fast responses across the attack lifecycle. By understanding and assessing the severity of the attack, the A10 Thunder TPS solution then automates effective escalation and automatically runs countermeasures to help mitigate DDoS attacks before they spread and wreak havoc.

The A10 Thunder TPS solution uses more than three dozen threat intelligence sources to block malicious traffic and monitors performance and security baselines with 28 behavioural indicators – considerably more than major competitors – inspecting suspicious traffic and escalating policies to help avoid legitimate traffic drops and eliminate false positives.

As per the company, the A10 aGalaxy TPS, A10 Thunder TPS Detector and A10 Thunder TPS Mitigator are now available in the market.
