JUNIPER NETWORKS RELEASES NEW MYKONOS SECURITY SOFTWARE TO STOP WEB ATTACKS

Press release:


JUNIPER NETWORKS RELEASES NEW MYKONOS SECURITY SOFTWARE TO STOP WEB ATTACKS

New Software Offers Improved Protection, Simplified Management and Increased Scalability
SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - May 30, 2012) - Juniper Networks (NYSEJNPR), the industry leader in network innovation, announced major platform enhancements to its Mykonos Web Security Software, which uses ground-breaking Intrusion Deception™ Technology to defend against web-based threats in real-time. The new release of Mykonos Web Security provides 30 new features and enhancements that strengthen protection against a wider range of attackers and hacking techniques, simplify configuration for security administrators, and boost scalability to help ensure holistic protection as traffic volumes increase.
View a demo of how Mykonos Web Security works here.
Web applications and websites are under constant attack and are the most popular targets for hackers because they remain the largest unprotected threat in corporate networks. A Ponemon Institute survey found 73 percent of organizations have been hacked at least once in the past two years through insecure web applications.
The Mykonos Web Security solution uses deception to create detection points -- or tar traps -- to identify malicious actors in real-time as they attempt to hack their desired target. Once attackers are identified, Mykonos Web Security prevents them from compromising critical information, wastes their time by presenting false vulnerabilities and provides valuable intelligence to thwart future attacks. This active, intelligence-based approach uses Mykonos' Intrusion Deception™ System -- the only system that truly neutralizes threats as they occur -- giving companies the upper hand by using attackers' actions against them without relying on signatures or passively restricting traffic. With Mykonos Web Security, Juniper Networks is transforming the security industry and changing the ROI of hacking by making it costly, time consuming and tedious for attackers to chase after false data.
Release Highlights
  • Enhanced security protections: Mykonos Web Security now detects a wider range of attackers and hacking techniques, protecting against more threats, as well as provides new countermeasures, including:
    • Preventing brute-force authentication attacks that rapidly guess combinations of usernames and passwords to gain access to systems. Mykonos Web Security prevents the attacker from using any compromised credentials even if an attacker happens to 'guess' the correct password.
    • Defending against directory traversal attempts that are used to map websites to gain additional information on how to attack them.
    • Integrating third-party software vulnerability protection into Mykonos Web Security, which helps prevent against known software vulnerabilities typically targeted by automated attack scripts. Mykonos Web Security now integrates a large library of known third-party attack data into its tracking, profiling, and response systems.
  • User-friendly and intuitive interface: A simplified interface unifies the security console and configuration, making it easier for customers to manage systems, as well as provides a new setup wizard tool to quickly deploy without assistance from Juniper Networks.
  • Greater performance clustering: Mykonos Web Security now supports throughput greater than 1Gb/second by enabling customers to add multiple slaves to a clustering model. In effect, this allows for Mykonos Web Security to protect higher-volume web properties.
  • Comprehensive approach to security: The new version of Mykonos Web Security provides a significant new layer of defense against web attacks and builds on the successful SRX and vGW platforms as a key component of Juniper's strategy to deliver a comprehensive and automated approach for data center security.

GLOBAL SURVEY REVEALS MOBILE TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION AT RISK IF CONSUMER TRUST NOT ADDRESSED

Press release:


GLOBAL SURVEY REVEALS MOBILE TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION AT RISK IF CONSUMER TRUST NOT ADDRESSED

Juniper Networks' First Trusted Mobility Index Benchmarks Consumer Confidence in Mobile Devices and Services
SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - May 9, 2012) - Juniper Networks (NYSEJNPR) released findings today from its first-annual Trusted Mobility Index, which found the vast majority of people are using mobile technology today that they do not necessarily trust. The global survey of 4,037 mobile device users and IT decision-makers found mobile technology adoption is outpacing confidence.
According to the survey, individuals are using more mobile devices, applications, services and networks than ever before and they are accessing critical personal and professional information while "on the go."
Despite this growth, consumer trust is uncertain.
Just 15 percent of respondents have a great deal of confidence in the security of their mobile devices and services, while the vast majority -- 63 percent -- are at a crossroads and simply do not know if they should trust that their mobile experiences are secure.
This lack of consumer confidence puts mobile adoption at risk.
The survey found that all it would take is a single security vulnerability -- real or perceived -- for people to change their mobile behaviors or abandon certain mobile services altogether.
The majority of people (71 percent) said they would stop using critical services like online banking (78 percent), that they would no longer send private communications (57 percent) and they would stop viewing medical (54 percent) or work-related information (52 percent).
According to the survey, mobile security is an important issue that affects everyone -- not just corporations -- and many have a part to play in building more trusted mobile experiences.
Additional Key Findings Include:
A Complex and Confusing Mobile Landscape
  • Mobile users worldwide own an average of three Internet-connected devices, while nearly one in five people (18 percent) own five or more devices.
  • Three-quarters (76 percent) of mobile users access their banking or personal medical information while on the go, while 89 percent of respondents who use their personal devices for business purposes, say they access sensitive work information.
  • Further, the trend toward a "bring your own device" (BYOD) enterprise is creating new concerns for IT leaders, with nearly half of all respondents using their personal device for work (41 percent) without permission from their company.
Key Stakeholders in Trust
  • Mobile users rank network security (69 percent) and network reliability (45 percent) as the top two drivers of trust in their mobile devices, followed by device security (43 percent).
  • The majority of mobile device users (63 percent) hold service providers most responsible for protecting their sensitive data, followed by device manufacturers (38 percent) and software security providers (34 percent).
  • For advice on mobile security, people look to industry security experts (20 percent), service providers (14 percent), software security providers (13 percent) and device manufacturers (10 percent).
Supporting Quotes:"The mobile revolution is unleashing massive opportunities, but our research shows we are at a critical turning point. The speed and scale at which mobile innovations can have a positive impact on society will depend on the industry's ability to address new security vulnerabilities before they undermine people's sense of safety. We must act now to protect and preserve trust in mobility."
-Nawaf Bitar, senior vice president, Security Business unit, Juniper Networks
"Building trust in mobility is just as important as building great networks and powerful applications. Creating a safer, more secure and trusted mobile experience requires a sustained, collective effort by mobile service providers, device manufacturers, software developers, networking companies and security experts.
-Dan Hoffman, chief mobile security evangelist, Juniper Networks
