Attack Types Protected
- HTTP/HTTPS Floods
- Volumetric attacks targeting web servers. We block millions of requests while allowing legitimate traffic through.
- Slowloris/Slow POST
- Low-bandwidth attacks that exhaust server connections. Detected via behavioral analysis.
- DNS Amplification
- Reflection attacks using DNS resolvers. Mitigated at scrubbing centers before reaching your infrastructure.
- Application-Specific Attacks
- Login brute force, API endpoint abuse, form submission floods. Custom rules per application.
- Bot Attacks
- Credential stuffing, web scraping, inventory hoarding. Advanced bot fingerprinting and behavioral detection.
Built For
E-commerce checkout, SaaS login and API, fintech, gaming, streaming.
FAQ
Common questions about application layer attack protection
CAPTCHA is optional and only shown to suspicious traffic (typically <1% of users).
<5ms added latency for legitimate traffic. Attackers experience blocking.
Yes. Real-time dashboard with attack sources, types, mitigation actions.
Yes. Integrates with CloudFlare, Fastly, or can replace CDN DDoS protection.
Custom rate limiting per API endpoint. Protect against API abuse and scraping.
Yes. Point DNS to our scrubbing centers (IP addresses provided).
Traffic passes through our scrubbing centers where AI analyzes request patterns, headers and behavior in real time. Traffic is classified as legitimate, suspicious or malicious; suspicious traffic may receive a CAPTCHA challenge, malicious traffic is blocked at the edge. Legitimate traffic reaches your origin with under 5ms added latency, and detection accuracy improves over time as the model adapts to new attack patterns.
