Corero Network Security PLC’s (LON:CNS) partnership agreement with network giant Juniper Networks Inc (NYSE: JNPR) has yielded its first revenue-generating order.
A global hosting provider has signed up, following a successful trial of Juniper's MX Series router coupled with Corero's SmartWall software, which specialises in protecting a network against the threat posed by distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks (where traffic flow on the network grinds to a halt as a result of an overwhelming flood of input/output requests).

I look forward to announcing additional customer wins as we seek to capitalise on the growing pipeline of opportunities and customer trials," said Ashley Stephenson, the chief executive officer of Corero.
