Allot Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ, TASE: ALLT), a leading provider of security and monetization solutions that enable service providers and enterprises to protect and personalize the digital experience, revealed that Allot Secure Service Gateway has quickly achieved popularity in the enterprise market in its first quarter of availability. Having only launched the product last October, Allot has already secured orders from customers across a range of different verticals, including Financial Services, Healthcare, Insurance and Education in the USA, Latin America and Europe.

Allot Secure Service Gateway is designed to meet organizations' need for a comprehensive solution that provides visibility and control for heterogeneous environments and networks extending from the datacenter to the WAN. According to Brad Casemore, Research Director, Datacenter Networks at IDC, it meets an increasing demand from the enterprise sector.

"We see a growing need for network analytics to provide valuable insight into strategic trends occurring today," said Casemore. "These include business process optimization in light of increasing application dependencies and complexities and cloud migration, the growth of Shadow IT, and the optimization of traditional and Software Defined Wide Area Networks."

Allot Secure Service Gateway is a unique solution, combining application-based visibility and control with web security and DDoS protection in a single, powerful, scalable appliance. The solution provides IT with powerful analytics for the purpose of troubleshooting, planning and optimization and can address security concerns related to IoT behavior analysis and control, the web and Shadow IT. Its powerful DDoS detection and mitigation engine, coupled with traffic management, toughens the network against traffic anomalies, malicious or otherwise. Allot Secure Service Gateway provides flexible policy tools that align IT resources with business priorities, increase productivity and user quality of experience and reduce the attack surface that can leave organizations' networks vulnerable.

"Allot Secure Service Gateway allows our customers to 'turn the lights on' in their network and discover real issues and their root causes quickly and effectively," said Ronen Priel, Vice President of Product Management and Marketing at Allot Communications. "Not only do our customers find faster and long term solutions to network latencies and other significant problems, but they are in turn surprised at the creative utility they get from the solution's security and control capabilities."
