About Arbor Edge Defense
NETSCOUT Arbor Edge Defense (AED) is a first and last line of defense against volumetric and application-layer DDoS attacks, as well as other advanced threats. Located at the network perimeter, AED identifies and blocks inbound threats while preventing outbound communications from compromised systems. With the support of NETSCOUT’s ATLAS® global threat intelligence, Arbor Edge Defense enables organizations to maintain continuous availability of critical services and protect against constantly evolving cyber risks. Whether deployed in data centers, branch offices, or cloud environments, AED provides inline protection without compromising network performance or user experience.
