To eliminate management complexity, HSC wanted a total security solution from a single vendor that included both WAF protection and DDoS attack mitigation. The solution will have to manage risk and monitor all traffic to quickly identify threats, and only allow legitimate traffic to access their applications. .

From experience using anti-DDoS solutions in the past, HSC knows that eliminating DDoS false positives is one of the important requirements that cannot be missed in the decision to choose a new solution.
