An application delivery solution gives you strong control over traffic management and security within your environment. But some of the most critical operational blind spots exist beyond the traditional application delivery boundary. Global user experience, DNS provider health, unknown APIs, and external attack surface exposure can all affect application performance, resilience, and risk – even when core application services are operating as expected.
