Network Layer Protection
A programmable security perimeter for inbound and outbound traffic at the edge.
How It Works
Create network lists based on user location, ASN, individual hosts, IPs, or lists maintained by Azion, such as the outbound addresses of Tor networks.
A globally distributed network of state-of-the-art edge nodes monitor, block or rate limit inbound and outbound traffic based your configured network lists.
Trusted by security experts across banking, e-commerce, tech, and other industries.









-
Advanced Mitigation
Full protection for your applications, content and infrastructure with network lists, rate limiting, and origin shield. -
Flexibility
Protect your applications, APIs and networks - wherever they are hosted - multi-cloud, on-premises or hybrid. -
Granular Control
Create block lists based on networks (ASN), IP/CIDR, country or automatically updated lists, which include Tor networks. -
High Resiliency
Automatically-tuned, software-defined network routes bad traffic away, backed by our 100% SLA. -
Rapid Response
Mission-critical support and expertise before, during and after an attack. -
Lower Bandwidth Costs
Block bad traffic at the edge - without having to scale up bandwidth. -
Visibility and Automation
Define responses and gain valuable insights into specific URLs of websites, applications, or API endpoints.
Enforce Network Lists
Protect your applications against Tor networks
Stop Account Takeovers
Set rate limits to limit excessive login attempts from brute force or credential stuffing
Stop Abusive Users or Attackers
Create watch lists and tag events to monitor the user's behavior
Protect Your Origin
Hide origin servers from the open Internet to keep your apps safe and performant
Avoid Bandwidth Costs
Reduce bandwidth costs by eliminating undesired traffic spikes or attacks
