Chelmsford, MA (PRWEB) July 16, 2012

Arbor Networks, Inc., a leading provider of network security and management solutions for enterprise and service provider networks, announced today that Gen-i, a division of Telecom New Zealand Limited, has joined Arbors Cloud Signaling Coalition. The Cloud Signaling Coalition (CSC) is an innovative partnership between service providers, datacenter operators and enterprises with the mission to ensure the availability of their network infrastructure and speed time-to-mitigation for distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.

Gen-i provides a wide range of hosted and integrated ICT solutions to business and government organizations, including business continuity, cloud computing, contact center, collaboration, data center and mobility services. From a security services perspective, Gen-i believes that enterprises must secure the network perimeter in order take control of IT risk management. Gen-i’s Safecom service is a suite of security-focused solutions, providing effective, robust protection for the network perimeter 24 hours a day.

Leanne Buer, Gen-i Head of Networked ICT Products, said, Gen-i is committed to offering our clients ICT solutions that deliver real business outcomes. Our clients expect these services to be available, reliable and secure 24/7. We are pleased to participate in Arbors Cloud Signaling Coalition. Arbor is an important part of our Safecom service and we see the CSC as an important tool that will help us further reduce time-to-mitigation for dynamic threats facing our client networks.

The Cloud Signaling system is efficient and integrated, bridging the customer premise to the service provider cloud. Arbor is bringing its decade of DDoS mitigation experience in ISP networks to the enterprise at a time when availability threats are top of mind for network operators, said Nick Race, Arbor Networks country manager for Australia and New Zealand.
