Advanced Rate Limiting

Protect your applications and APIs with precision and control

Advanced Rate Limiting Capabilities

Precise Protection

Count requests using keys like headers, ASN, country, IP, and fingerprints. Stop malicious traffic without blocking real users with multiple keys for precise targeting.

Granular Control

Set filters and thresholds to match your business logic. Maintain protection against new threats with custom rules for flexible security.

Unmetered Protection

Get full protection without hidden costs. Avoid surprise expenses from traffic spikes and attacks with no limits on traffic protection.

The Challenge of Modern Web Traffic

Websites and APIs face threats from bots, scrapers, and malicious users. Traditional IP-based rate limiting falls short in today's complex landscape.

Sophisticated Bots

Bots use distributed networks and residential IPs to bypass traditional rate limits.

Traffic Spikes

Legitimate traffic surges can trigger false positives, impacting user experience.

API Abuse

APIs require flexible rate limiting to prevent abuse while allowing normal usage.

Fine Targeting with Rules

Define precise rules based on request and response parameters. Gain granular control over rate limiting for a nuanced security approach. Separate counting and enforcement rules to create flexible policies.

Configurable Request Thresholds

Set thresholds to protect websites and APIs from suspicious requests. Choose from options including specific URLs, request methods, status codes, and request limits for a tailored security fit.

Customisable Keys

Use keys like cookies, ASN, country, IP, and fingerprints to customise rate limiting rules. Get accurate protection that stops malicious traffic without affecting real users through fine-grained targeting.

Advanced Features

Adaptive Thresholds

Automatically adjust rate limits based on traffic patterns and historical data.
