Managed Firewalls & Perimeter Defense
Hardware and software firewall appliances filtering malicious traffic, botnets, and port scans.
What this is
Stateful packet filtering and web application firewalls positioned at your network boundary to block port scanning, brute force attempts, and common web attack vectors.
How it works
- 1Define granular port allowlists: only ports 80, 443, and secured SSH permitted.
- 2Deploy stateful firewall rules that inspect connection states.
- 3Integrate automated IP rate-limiting to throttle suspicious request floods.
- 4Log and analyze dropped packets for security threat intelligence.
What's included
| Inspection Type | Stateful packet inspection (SPI) |
| Rate Limiting | Dynamic connection throttling per source IP |
| Brute Force Defense | Automated bans for repeated authentication failures |
| Custom Rules | Geo-blocking and CIDR-based subnet restrictions |
Suitability assessment
✓ When this makes sense
- •Websites receiving high volumes of malicious automated bot probes.
- •Internal backends that should only be accessible from authorized office IP ranges.
✕ When it doesn't
- •Completely isolated air-gapped systems with zero external network connectivity.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. We strongly recommend and configure IP-restricted management ports so administrative interfaces are invisible to the public internet.
