F5 Unifies CDN & Load Balancer Performance, Enhances Bot & API Security

F5's integration of CDN and HTTP Load Balancer data into a single view simplifies troubleshooting and performance analysis for streaming operators, who often deploy both components. The enhanced API security features address the growing attack surface presented by APIs, enabling better traffic filtering and more accurate inventorying. Likewise, granular bot controls and expanded client-side defense capabilities help mitigate automated threats and client-side attacks, which are crucial for maintaining service quality and security in streaming environments. This update centralizes control and visibility, reducing operational overhead and improving incident response for complex streaming infrastructures. What to watch is how quickly enterprises adopt these consolidated views and advanced security policies to streamline media delivery operations.
