A new software and hardware complex for cybersecurity, "Cerberus," has been introduced in Russia. It is designed to protect high-load networks and critical IT infrastructure. The development was showcased by "RT-Inform" – a Rostec subsidiary specializing in IT and cybersecurity.
"Cerberus" is a software and hardware complex for protecting IT infrastructure and networks. It is a system designed to help large organizations protect their digital services, internal networks, and data from cyber threats and overloads.
The development was created in collaboration with Russian companies Kod Bezopasnosti and Tsifrovye Resheniya. The complex is based on a new-generation firewall with cryptographic protection support according to GOST standards. It is responsible for filtering and protecting network traffic within the infrastructure.
The second key element of the complex is the DS Proxima hardware traffic balancer. Its task is to distribute the load among system nodes so that the network continues to operate stably even with a high data flow. In addition, the balancer helps increase the system's throughput and enhances its fault tolerance, according to the statement.
According to Rostec representatives, "Cerberus" was created for medium and large enterprises, including state corporations and government agencies. The company reported that the system was tested in pilot mode for two years, and during this time, it confirmed its readiness for widespread implementation.
The solution can be used not only in Russia but also in projects in CIS countries, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America, Rostec stated.
