The Evolving Threat Landscape for Government Agencies
Government organisations are prime targets for a wide range of cyber threats, from state-sponsored actors to cybercriminals. The push for digital transformation has expanded the attack surface, exposing web applications, APIs, and critical infrastructure.
Key challenges include:
- Sophisticated DDoS Attacks: Disrupting essential services and causing significant reputational damage.
- Application & API Vulnerabilities: Exploits that lead to data breaches and compromise of Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
- Automated Bot Attacks: Credential stuffing, scraping, and other malicious activities that strain resources and enable fraud.
- Compliance Demands: The constant pressure to meet stringent security frameworks like the ACSC's Essential Eight.
Resilient DDoS Defence
Ensure your digital services remain available, even during large-scale DDoS attacks. Peakhour's global Anycast network absorbs and mitigates the largest volumetric attacks at the edge.
Our advanced Layer 7 protection inspects application traffic to block sophisticated attacks like HTTP floods and Slowloris, ensuring the availability of your critical public-facing services.
Advanced WAF and API Security
Protect against the OWASP Top 10, zero-day threats, and complex API-specific vulnerabilities. Our Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) platform secures citizen data, prevents breaches, and ensures the integrity of your web applications.
We provide deep visibility into your API traffic, enforce security policies, and protect against data exfiltration, helping you secure your entire digital ecosystem.
Intelligent Bot Management and Threat Intelligence
Proactively block malicious bots responsible for credential stuffing, content scraping, and other automated threats. Our multi-layered detection engine accurately distinguishes between human users, good bots, and malicious bots without impacting user experience.
