BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Ribbon Communications Inc. (Nasdaq: RBBN), a global leader in secure and intelligent cloud communications, today announced that its advanced security software solution Ribbon Protect has been named a winner in the 2019 BIG Innovation Awards presented by the Business Intelligence Group.
"We're thrilled to receive this award just a year after introducing Ribbon Protect at last year's Mobile World Congress," said Tony Scarfo, Executive Vice President of Products, R&D, Support & Supply Chain for Ribbon. "Software innovation is one of our guiding principles and we're continuing to evolve Ribbon Protect in order to support service providers with machine learning (ML) and AI-powered insights to drive an end-to-end 360° analytics framework on mobile, fixed and OTT IP data and voice."
The Ribbon Protect software platform empowers service providers to respond to real-time communications (RTC) cyberattacks, fraud and network quality incidents promptly, intelligently, and efficiently. Ribbon Protect quickly and easily integrates with existing RTC network investments and provides a new level of security for real time communications via powerful, advanced behavioral analytics. Leveraging well-established concepts of network behavioral analytics from the data world, Ribbon Protect adaptively establishes a baseline of what is "normal" for voice and video sessions as well as IP port activity. Deviations from this baseline can be rapidly identified and mitigated.
"This year's winners show just how deep a role innovation plays in nearly every aspect of the business," said Maria Jimenez, chief operating officer of the Business Intelligence Group. "We are thrilled to be honoring Ribbon as they are leading by example and making real progress in improving the daily lives of so many."
