2025 Product and Industry Update
Corero Network Security plc provided a 2025 product and industry update highlighting a shift in DDoS attack sophistication, with smaller, persistent, and encrypted attacks becoming more prevalent, impacting even major cloud providers. The company's SmartWall ONE platform evolved to address these challenges by incorporating TLS protection for encrypted traffic, Zero Trust Admission Control, and expanded application security capabilities, alongside easier deployment options. Corero is focusing on deeper cloud-native integrations and broader application-layer controls to become an indispensable operational resilience layer for modern networked environments. Disclaimer*
About this update from Corero Network Security Plc
[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n29 December 2025\n \n\n \nCorero Network Security plc\n(\"Corero\" or the \"Company\")\n \n2025 Product and Industry Update\n \nCorero (AIM: CNS) (OTCQX: DDOSF), the distributed denial of service (\"DDoS\") protection specialists and champion of adaptive, real-time service availability, issues the following update from Chief Executive Office, Carl Herberger, on Corero's product development and DDoS industry trends in 2025.\n \nDear Shareholders,\n \nThis year, we saw a shift that many in our industry had been sensing for some time. Even the most sophisticated operators, including Microsoft, Cloudflare, and AWS, experienced outages that exposed how deeply interconnected and vulnerable modern digital infrastructure has become. These were not outliers or isolated events. They were reminders that the very nature of DDoS attacks has changed, and that many defences were built for a world that no longer exists.\n \nWhat stood out the most this year was not just the size of attacks, but how they were orchestrated. Most were small, under 1 Gbps, persistent, and deliberately designed to slip past traditional detection thresholds, while others were multi-vector, encrypted, and coordinated across systems. In both cases, the goal was the same: degrade service quietly under the radar and exhaust firewall resources over time.\n \nWe have heard this story repeatedly from customers. Legacy tools react too late, cannot see into encrypted traffic, and struggle at the application layer. When attacks come from multiple directions at once, coordination breaks down. This is the kind of environment Corero's platform, anchored by SmartWall ONE™, was built for, and in 2025 it became increasingly clear that effective DDoS protection depends on always-on visibility, coordination across layers, and mitigation that happens before services degrade.\n \nPlatform Evolution\nThe most important shift this year was not the result of a single Corero product release, but how customers used our platform and what they asked us to become. They did not just want help stopping large traffic spikes. They wanted visibility where they had none before, protection that extended into encrypted and application-layer traffic, and automation that could respond faster than human teams ever could. That demand shaped everything we del...
