Overview

Radware SecurePath is a new, revolutionary application security architecture. It’s uniquely designed to safeguard today’s multi-cloud application environments, while maintaining consistent, high-grade, comprehensive protection for applications regardless of where they’re deployed.

Traditionally, cloud-based web application defense has relied on ‘inline’ deployments, which require the re-routing of traffic through a cloud-based WAF first, only then redirecting it to a destination server. However, this approach results in unnecessary additional hops, long logical routing paths, and added latency as well as requires the sharing of the application’s SSL certificate with third-party providers.

SecurePath, on the other hand, departs from traditional industry paradigms by offering an API-based, out-of-path deployment method. The solution was designed from the ground up to optimally protect applications deployed across any cloud and data center – on-premise, private cloud and public cloud environments – while improving security, uptime, and performance.

Advantages of Radware’s Approach:
• Optimal Deployment Architecture for Any Cloud: Radware’s application security architecture can be deployed either as an “inline” or API-based out-of-path SaaS service, enabling coverage of any data center and cloud platform with minimal latency and avoiding any interruptions and risks to uptime and availability.
• State-of-the-Art Protection: Radware provides the industry’s best application security, combining a WAF, bot management, API protection and DDoS protection, using a positive security model based on advanced machine-learning algorithms.
• Consistent Protection Across Environments: Radware’s architecture can uniquely protect applications regardless of where they are hosted, allowing for consistent, high-grade protection with uniform security policies.
• Centralized Management and Visibility: Radware’s unified security portal offers granular management of all applications, regardless of where they are deployed, for full cross-cloud visibility from within a single dashboard.
• No SSL Certificate Sharing: Radware’s API-based architecture does not require the application’s SSL certificate be shared with third parties, preserving customer confidentiality and complying with regulatory requirements.
