The new solution enhances the security of existing services, while minimizing costs due to network failures and providing services.

Works with any modem port system using standard PacketCable Multimedia (CMTS) cables, solutions Limit Cable Overcoming threats including a combination of routers, devices for Detection and Intrusion Prevention (IDP ) and SDX Service Deployment System, enabling MSOs to identify and isolate quickly and effectively security threats, and send infected machine alerts to customers and employees. operating. With the use of a CMTS-based architecture, Juniper New Cable Threat Limiting solution helps MSOs secure VoIP services throughout their network, from IP core to end users.

Solution Limit threats to Juniper Networks using an IDP Cable using a Cable, this device monitors network attacks on each user, each application, or based on needs, and uses Juniper Network's SDX 300 product. Bad traffic such as malware (malware) or distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) will be detected by IDP and alerted to SDX-300. SDX will then emit an appropriate policy to any Juniper Networks and / or modem gateway system using a PacketCable Multimedia or third party router, enabling MSOs to deploy. A variety of options to minimize threats.

Depending on the nature of the threats, MSOs may choose to limit or filter traffic, drop calls or reconnect users to web portals and automatically re-create services when threats are present. is excluded.

Besides securing VoIP services, the new solution can also be extended to provide security for SIP-based services, such as online video games, and online conferencing. image, instant messaging (IM) services and push-to-talk (push-to-talk) services.
