Mu Dynamics Introduces New DoS Module

(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Mu Dynamics has announced Denial of Service (DoS) Module for the
Mu-4000 appliance.

According to the company, the Mu solution ensures service providers can
identify and eliminate service, application and network downtime caused
by DoS and Distributed DoS attacks.

Studies from Network Strategy Partners (NSP) and others put the cost of
downtime for a large service provider network in excess of $100,000 per
hour.

Mu Dynamics noted that this enables Mu to deliver additional proactive
service assurance options that result in a high return on investment
for network operators and equipment vendors. The ability to minimize
service/network downtime accelerates the rollout of more services.

"The proactive service assurance provided by Mu is cost-justified in a
single release cycle," says Ir. Bilpen Nainggolan, senior manager
research & development of network management at Telkom RDC Indonesia.
"Our voice, video and data service customers count on Telkom RDC
Indonesia to quickly roll out new and enhanced IP-based services that
are always available and highly resilient. The inherent and growing
complexity of VoIP and IPTV services makes it increasingly important to
ensure high availability and security. For Telkom RDC Indonesia, Mu's

unique solution is essential for reliably provisioning new services
more rapidly and with greater confidence to build customer
satisfaction."

"Our customers require high-performance security products to be highly
resistant to either inadvertent or malicious DoS weaknesses," said
Michael Frendo, senior vice president, high-end security systems,
Juniper Networks. "Mu helps our product development teams to ensure
that customer's services using Juniper-based infrastructure are fast,
reliable and secure ultimately reducing costly application downtime."
