Vercara unveils new edge platform promising enhanced web performance and security

Vercara, a provider of cloud-based services, has announced the launch of an edge platform that includes a Content Delivery Network (CDN), integrated application security, and edge computing.

UltraEdge works by speeding up time to market for new applications, according to the company. Powered by Edgio and supported through Vercara’s Security Operations Center (SOC), the edge platform also safeguards application environments from internet-based threats.

Recent research conducted by Vercara found that 75% of consumers would sever ties with a brand that experienced an impactful cyber incident. As a result, Vercara boasts its platform aims to meet customer demand for fast web experiences.

Other features of the edge platform includes protection against a range of threats including DDoS attacks, OWASP top 10 and vulnerability-based threats to applications and APIs, as well as fraudulent activities from malicious bots.

Speaking about the launch of UltraEdge, Carlos Morales, senior vice president of solutions at Vercara, says: “In the extremely competitive web application landscape, it’s critical for businesses to keep application environments available, performant, and secure to mitigate any impact to their reputations and revenues.

“With UltraEdge, we’re thrilled to be able to offer easy-to-use workflows and developer tools to empower companies of all sizes to deliver an unmatched combination of web performance and security for all digital assets.”

The edge platform comes in three packages, to which the company notes all tiers offer the ability for users to create and deploy websites with web hosting and development tools.

“As a 20-year veteran of the space, Edgio has been a pioneer in content delivery, edge compute, and security technologies, enabling our customers to deliver sub-second web applications to users anywhere in the world, and protecting them with proven security capabilities,” says Richard Yew, head of security product at Edgio.

“We are delighted to combine our platform with Vercara’s best-in-class DNS and network security solutions to keep high-stakes web properties secure against all internet-based threats.”
