What makes Ribbon SBCs stand apart from the competition? Maybe it’s the fact that the world’s most demanding service providers have trusted Ribbon to deliver secure, high-quality SIP communications for more than 20 years. Maybe it’s the peace of mind that comes from independent testing that shows that Ribbon SBCs can thwart the most challenging denial of service attacks without impacting call traffic. Or, maybe it’s because we offer more deployment choices with unique SBC models that offer the right solutions for small businesses as well as the best performance and security for Tier 1 service providers. It could also be the knowledge that Ribbon’s software-based solutions have the same robust performance and scale as its hardware-based products. In the end, it likely comes down to something simple - Ribbon SBCs simply work.

Ribbon SBCs are just one piece of Ribbon’s real-time communications security practice. They work in concert with Ribbon’s Analytics portfolio to provide operational efficiencies and proactive security services. Ribbon SBCs, together with the Protect Platform for Analytics more effectively respond to real-time communications cyberattacks, fraud attempts and network quality incidents than competitors with standalone solutions.

Of course, in addition to security, SBCs play a number of critical roles in service provider networks. Ribbon SBCs are often deployed network-wide with Ribbon’s PSX to enable centralized network policy and routing control. Service providers can institute a policy change and see it start to cascade across a world-wide network in minutes. This deployment model accelerates responses to threats and dramatically reduces operational costs compared to traditional solutions. It’s no wonder the leading IPX providers around the globe rely on Ribbon solutions.
