CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: At Interop Tokyo 2025, currently being held at Makuhari Messe from June 11 (Wednesday), A10 Networks received the Special Prize in the Security (for AI) category for its “A10 Defend AI Firewall – Thunder 1060S-AI” and in the Security (High Performance) category for its “Web API Security – ThreatX by A10 Networks” at the “Best of Show Award.”
The Best of Show Award is one of the largest internet technology exhibitions in Japan, where a panel of IT industry experts recognizes new products entered by exhibiting companies.
As the adoption of LLMs (Large Language Models) advances, all natural language input is treated as user input, making it difficult to defend against malicious input vulnerabilities with just the LLM itself. The “A10 Defend AI Firewall – Thunder 1060S-AI” monitors input and output at the boundary between users and LLMs, preventing attacks on the LLM, unintended outputs, and leakage of confidential information. Furthermore, by incorporating a dedicated, low-latency AI-Engine, it supports customization to protect organizational policies and sensitive data, thereby enabling a secure LLM usage environment.
APIs, widely used for external integration, provide access to data and functions, making them prime targets for malicious attackers. Attackers can also blend in with legitimate communications to obtain information and skillfully conceal their hacking activities. The cloud-native API security solution “Web API Security – ThreatX by A10 Networks” continuously tracks and analyzes such attacker behaviors, accurately detecting and defending against attacks to protect businesses from misuse and data breaches.
