As artificial intelligence (AI) adoption accelerates across industries, businesses are leveraging technologies like GenAI, large language models, and powerful GPUs to enhance operations and decision-making. However, the rapid integration of AI into digital infrastructure has also introduced new security vulnerabilities. According to IBM’s latest research, the average cost of a data breach has surged to $4.88 million, with the healthcare, financial services, and technology sectors — major AI adopters — facing the highest risk.
As threat actors increasingly target AI systems, organisations need advanced security measures that can keep pace with this evolving landscape. A10 Networks (NYSE: ATEN) is stepping up with an integrated platform designed to help organisations bolster their cyber resilience, mitigate AI-related risks, and streamline infrastructure management.
AI-Ready Platform for Secure and Efficient Operations
A10 Networks is enhancing its Advanced Core Operating System (ACOS) by integrating a full AI stack to support AI-powered infrastructures. Set to launch later this year, the new version of ACOS will interface with AI inference environments, allowing businesses to offload computationally intensive tasks. This ensures AI servers deliver the highest throughput and lowest latency, optimising system performance without compromising security. As more organisations adopt AI for critical processes, securing these environments becomes paramount.
A10 Control: Centralized Management for Simplified Security Operations
Managing complex infrastructures across multiple locations is increasingly challenging for security teams. A10 Networks addresses this issue with A10 Control, a centralised management platform that provides a unified interface for the A10 Thunder ADC and A10 Defend product lines. Launching later this year, A10 Control will enable organisations to automate device upgrades, manage licenses, and monitor system health from a single dashboard — providing full visibility into network traffic and potential threats. This streamlines operations and improves response times in the face of evolving threats.
AI-Powered Bot Protection: Proactive Defense Against Sophisticated Attacks
Recognising the growing threat posed by bot-driven attacks, A10 Networks is expanding its A10 Defend portfolio with AI-powered bot protection. Currently in trial, this solution enhances existing web application security by detecting and mitigating bot-related threats using AI models, ensuring real-time defence against increasingly sophisticated bots. This proactive protection complements A10’s robust DDoS detection and mitigation capabilities, providing organisations with comprehensive security coverage.
Comprehensive DDoS Protection for Enterprise Networks
A10 Networks’ Defend DDoS Protection portfolio, trusted by major global service providers, has been upgraded to address the needs of large enterprises facing multi-vector and volumetric DDoS attacks. The solution integrates on-premises protection with cloud-based mitigation, providing additional layers of defence against large-scale attacks that exceed the capacity of on-site infrastructure. This combination ensures service continuity and minimises downtime, even in the face of high-volume, sophisticated DDoS attacks.
Through these integrated security solutions, A10 Networks enables organisations to reduce their cybersecurity risks, improve operational efficiency, and enhance resilience against today’s most advanced threats.
“For over two decades, A10 Networks has been a leader in helping businesses achieve their security objectives,” said Dhrupad Trivedi, president and CEO of A10 Networks. “With the rise of AI across industries, our solutions are designed to ensure that organisations can securely harness its power while minimising the risks posed by emerging cyber threats.”
