Organizations face an ever-evolving array of cyber threats that jeopardize network availability and security. That said, we are proud to introduce an innovative approach to adaptive, resilient, and cost-effective cybersecurity with the Corero Observability and Resiliency Ecosystem (CORE), thoughtfully designed to tackle these challenges. Discover how CORE strengthens network security and resilience for enterprises across industries, delivering robust protection without added complexity.
Understanding CORE’s Mission
The primary goal of CORE is to create a comprehensive observability and resilience framework. CORE isn’t just a single solution but a platform combining multiple technologies and products to provide deeper insights, resilience, and real-time threat mitigation. CORE’s architecture is founded on the principle of “feeds, insights, and signals,” which creates actionable intelligence from vast datasets, helping organizations address a broader array of threats beyond DDoS attacks.
Enhancing Security without Adding Complexity
CORE aims to enhance security frameworks incrementally. Instead of completely overhauling existing systems, CORE adapts to the existing infrastructure. This incremental approach enables providers and enterprise organizations to improve availability and resilience without disrupting ongoing operations, reducing the complexity of modern cybersecurity frameworks by integrating seamlessly with customers’ unique network topologies.
CORE’s Subscription Model for Flexibility
Based on a SaaS model, CORE provides flexibility to service providers and enterprise businesses. The subscription-based structure allows them to select only the needed features, reducing financial commitments and fostering scalability. As Michael Honeycutt from Corero Network Security explains, the “pay-as-you-go” approach means that organizations can choose the capabilities that directly align with their specific security and availability needs, a valuable model for businesses with varying budget considerations.
Integrating Human Expertise with Automation
Incorporating automated threat intelligence with human expertise, CORE addresses the need for rapid, accurate responses. While 98% of DDoS attacks can be detected and mitigated automatically, the remaining cases often require the analytical abilities of trained security professionals. By refining automation where possible and leaving the rest to cybersecurity experts, CORE helps maximize security while conserving resources, a vital balance for today’s resource-strapped security teams.
Seamless Integration with Third-Party Systems
CORE’s adaptability shines in its integration capabilities. By supporting third-party systems and legacy infrastructure, CORE empowers organizations to avoid vendor lock-in and make the most of existing investments. For instance, CORE integrates seamlessly with platforms like Juniper and leverages standards like FlowSpec. This flexibility is critical for businesses that build long-term resilience without overhauling their network architecture.
Data Lake for Actionable Intelligence
With massive volumes of data generated daily, effective data management is crucial for meaningful insights. CORE’s data lake strategy ensures that only relevant features are stored, enabling faster, more actionable analysis. CORE allows enterprises and service providers to make data-driven decisions by extracting essential insights, increasing network resilience with more innovative, more coordinated responses.
Who Benefits Most from CORE?
While many organizations can gain from CORE, those with a vital network component, such as hosting providers, ISPs, SaaS providers, telecom companies, and large enterprises, benefit most. These sectors rely on network availability and face increased threats daily. CORE’s advanced observability features and flexible DDoS protection equip these organizations to handle various risks, boosting overall service availability and customer trust.
What’s Next for CORE?
Corero continues to evolve the CORE platform, expanding into areas like advanced botnet and encrypted traffic protections, particularly in the application layer. This proactive approach ensures that CORE remains on the cutting edge, addressing new threats and evolving to meet the demands of today’s dynamic digital landscape. Future enhancements will make CORE even more valuable as a security staple for any organization looking to stay resilient.
Final Thoughts
Corero CORE represents a significant step forward in how organizations can fortify their cybersecurity posture. By fostering resilience, minimizing complexity, and supporting integration with existing systems, CORE empowers organizations of all types to reduce security blind spots and improve service availability while remaining adaptable to future threats. We believe CORE is well worth exploring for those interested in a solution that doesn’t just prevent attacks but actively contributes to long-term network health.
