F5 BIG-IP AFM Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)
Service provider and enterprise networks operate using a number of different protocols that enable connectivity to a large number of applications. Most of these networks operate on legacy protocols that have weak or non-existent built-in security, and which can be exploited by an attacker to impact services or steal information. For service providers delivering 5G-based services, the new 5G architecture introduces exponentially more new entry points into network infrastructure. To deliver an experience that meets customers’ expectations in a competitive marketplace, protecting the networks is a must.
