Ashley Stephenson, Corero CEO, said: "We are delighted to announce over $1 million of new orders and more importantly, to confirm encouraging sales progress from our strategic partnership with Juniper.”

The sales with Juniper came after successful trials combining Juniper’s MX Series router and Corero’s Threat Defense Director SmartWall software solution.

The collaboration provided protection against the threat posed by DDoS attacks and enabled Juniper customers to generate incremental revenue by delivering DDoS protection services to their own customers.

The customers included a  leading S&P 500 communication infrastructure provider and a large Japanese electronics company.
