What is Arbor Edge Defense?

Arbor Edge Defense (AED) is a specialized inline security solution deployed at the enterprise/customer edge, between the Internet router and the firewall.
Unlike traditional firewalls or IDS/IPS, AED is purpose-built to stop inbound DDoS attacks and block outbound malicious traffic, acting as the first and last line of defense.

Powered by ATLAS® global threat intelligence and Arbor’s decades of DDoS expertise, AED uniquely combines:

• Stateless, line-rate DDoS protection,
• Threat intelligence enforcement, and
• Integration with SOC/NOC workflows.
