WAF & edge protection
Application firewall and DDoS mitigation with AWS WAF and Shield, tuned against your actual traffic so legitimate users are not the ones being blocked.

What we deliver
Rules that fit your traffic.
Managed rule groups out of the box block real customers. Every rule we deploy runs in count mode against live traffic before it is allowed to block anything.
Rule design
Managed and custom rule groups selected for your application's real risks.
Count-mode tuning
Live traffic analysis to eliminate false positives before enforcement.
Rate limiting
Per-IP and per-session limits sized to genuine usage patterns.
DDoS posture
Shield configuration, response plan, and escalation path to AWS.
Logging & review
WAF logs into the analytics stack with a monthly review cadence.
How it runs
Observe, tune, then enforce.
The tuning period is not optional. Turning on managed rules without it is how a security project becomes an outage.
Baseline
Traffic profiling to understand normal before defining abnormal.
Deploy in count
Rules live but non-blocking, logging every would-be match.
Tune
False positives eliminated rule by rule against real requests.
Enforce
Blocking enabled with rollback ready and dashboards watched.

Cost & AWS pricing
Fixed-price engagement. WAF is billed per web ACL, rule, and request; Shield Advanced carries a monthly subscription — we model both against your traffic before recommending a tier.

Protect the edge without blocking customers.
Discovery comes first — a short, bounded review that ends in an architecture, a scope, and a price. You keep the output either way.
