Fastly Network Protect

Defense without detours

Stop trading performance for protection. Network Protect filters traffic at the edge and absorbs attacks with the largest network capacity for DDoS mitigation.

Beneficios

Keep your speed. Block the threats.

Network Protect runs on Fastly's software-defined edge, so you get always-on defense backed by the entire Fastly network, traffic that skips scrubbing-center detours, and no hardware to buy or maintain.

Unparalleled Resiliency

Network Protect puts Fastly’s full mitigation capacity between your origin and L3/L4 threats. Our 622 Tbps of network capacity is nearly 21 times larger than the biggest DDoS attack on record, so if your vendor can't absorb the largest attacks, you're exposed.

Inline Protection

Network Protect doesn't force your traffic through distant scrubbing centers. Every Fastly POP ingests traffic and routes it to your origin over GRE, so it arrives faster than other solutions and even the public internet. Always-on, no slowdown.

Hardwareless Defense

Network Protect is software-defined and deployed at Fastly's edge, so there's no hardware to buy, maintain, or replace. Build ACLs and network policy rules with simple tools, or spot attacks in your monitoring tools and push policies via API.

Funciones

Network defense, built for the edge

Network Protect gives you the controls to filter, steer, and log traffic before it reaches your origin. Every feature runs on Fastly's edge, delivering always-on network layer defense, massive mitigation capacity, and complete visibility.

Stateless network traffic filtering

Allow or block traffic based on connection state, not just packets. Network Protect evaluates sessions at the edge to scale protection across high traffic volumes, keeping legitimate connections flowing and unsolicited traffic away from origin.

Network traffic steering

Route traffic through Fastly's network instead of the public internet. Every POP ingests your traffic and delivers it to origin over GRE, taking an efficient path without diverting through centralized scrubbing center hubs.

Fast, always on protection

Keep protection running all the time without paying for it in latency. Because Network Protect sits inline on Fastly's edge, you don't have to scramble during an attack to switch mitigation on.

High mitigation capacity

Absorb volumetric and protocol-specific attacks backed by the full capacity of the Fastly network. Your origin stays online even when attacks outgrow other providers.

Granular traffic policies

Define custom ACLs and network policies tailored to your stack. Maintain rules through intuitive controls or automate updates directly via API to respond instantly to emerging threats.

Insights from network metrics

Gain insight over the traffic attempting to access your network, what's being allowed, and what policies are blocking traffic.
