More than half the things I read about technology these days are some kind of AI integration. I don’t think that will be slowing down any time soon and will be something we’ll be constantly seeing throughout 2025.
Thankfully, AI isn’t all about image and video generation, or erasing objects off backgrounds. AI also plays a crucial role in security. One example is A10 Networks, which has developed AI-based solutions to enhance cyber resilience. They harness AI to secure and manage infrastructures, lower cybersecurity risks, improve user experiences and performance, and simplify IT infrastructure.
A10 upgrades their Advanced Core Operating System (ACOS) with an integrated AI Stack, meant to ensure customers’ AI Inference and GenAI environments are compatible and functional.
A10 has mentioned that they are exploring more integrations with AI Inference. This will allow their solutions to load-balance and offload some of the computationally intensive tasks, providing AI Inference server CPUs and GPUs the ability to deliver the highest throughput and lowest latency available in the industry.
A10 Control is a centralized management platform that manages both A10 Thunder ADC and A10 Defend portfolio of products from a central location. Available later this year, A10 Control will allow customers to seamlessly migrate from their existing A10 management consoles to A10 Control and simplify their operations. They will be able to automate A10 device upgrades, manage flexible licenses, monitor system health, all from a single dashboard that provides visibility across all traffic.
A10 continues to broaden its cybersecurity solution portfolio. In addition to A10’s web application security, DDoS detection and mitigation and DDoS threat intelligence solutions, A10 Defend will now include AI-powered bot protection. This solution will help customers protect their applications from bot threats and is in early trial phase.
The A10 Defend DDoS protection portfolio protects some of the world’s largest service providers. A10 has been expanding capabilities to meet large enterprise requirements for mitigating multi-vector and volumetric DDoS threats. This offering complements existing A10 Defend on-premises DDoS protection with the ability to mitigate large volumetric attacks in the cloud adding enhanced protection against attacks that exceed the size of internet links or on-premises capacity.
Together, the A10 Defend and A10 infrastructure portfolios help both enterprise and service provider customers simplify their IT operations, reduce cyber security risk and deliver a better customer experience.
“For over 20 years, A10 has helped businesses efficiently achieve their connectivity and security goals with technology innovation. The technology landscape continues to rapidly evolve as our customers are increasingly harnessing AI to power their infrastructures making our differentiation even more relevant,” said Dhrupad Trivedi, president and CEO, A10 Networks. “A10 is on this journey with our customers, and we continue to innovate around enabling their current and future business outcomes.”
