"77% of the Asian enterprises worries about security attacks over the internet, and 63% worries about regulatory and compliance change, which changes relatively fast, that some companies can't oblige easily with the new rules. " Enterprise Solution Marketing Manager, Abby Tang. With these new IDP platforms, their system is protected by a secured IP infrastructure that coordinates network application and endpoint intelligence to control network traffic, and to do all of these cost-effectively, Juniper Networks has integrated the following: Delivery Control, Use Control and Threat Control, which comprises the Enterprise Infranet: An IP infrastructure that coordinates network application and endpoint intelligence to control network traffic - providing secure and assured delivery of applications.
