Hitachi Solutions and Radware have announced they will start offering Radware’s Cloud Application Protection Service in Japan. The application of a cloud-based solution is to guard not only the applications but also the APIs from the advancing DDoS attacks, which also include the flooding attacks targeting web and HTTPS.
Since the end of 2024, Japan has experienced an increase in major DDoS attacks that have resulted in the issue of government alerts. The service uses AI algorithms to detect zero-day attacks and create defense signatures within seconds. It can adjust thresholds automatically as attacks change, helping businesses prevent service disruptions while avoiding unnecessary blocking of legitimate traffic.
The service supports network, web application, volumetric, zero-day, and encrypted traffic attacks. AI-driven algorithms allow rapid detection and response. Security policies are optimized automatically, reducing operational burden, while Radware also provides regular policy reviews. Global cloud security centers mitigate attacks close to their origin to reduce latency.

Hitachi Solutions will provide additional support through its Cyber Resilience Solutions, including consulting from white-hat hackers, incident response, and ongoing operations. The partnership will be instrumental in marketing Radware’s hardware DDoS protection platform known as DefensePro X, which provides complete defense from the moment of attack until recovery.
According to Radware’s Global Threat Analysis Report for 2025, the number of DDoS attacks has increased by 550 percent as of 2023, and their evolution is moving towards more advanced kinds. The major disruption caused by the large-scale attack in Japan at the end of 2024 has pointed out the necessity for real-time detection and automated protection. The primary goal of this release is to reinforce the continuity of business and cyber resilience against threats.
