The patent highlights Radware's continued commitment to develop products that ensure application reliability and responsiveness. Radware's WSD was introduced into the market in 1997 and has continued to set industry standards for layer 4-7 local and global application switching.

"This patent further demonstrates our strength and technological leadership in the load balancing arena," said Roy Zisapel, president and CEO of Radware. "From the beginning we have always invested heavily in research and development. Following the patent we received in January 2004 for multi-homing technology, this recent patent validates our expertise and commitment to deliver unparalleled products and solutions."
