Ilmexus Managed Defence

Your edge, defended by people — not just a product.

We operate the WAF, DDoS, bot and fraud controls across every platform you run. No rip-and-replace, no dashboard you have to babysit. Just defence that's owned.

What we run

Four disciplines, one team.

Each is a service we own end to end — designed, tuned and held against your real traffic.

DEF-01

WAF / WAAP management

We own the ruleset across every edge and cloud WAF you run — designing, tuning and maintaining policy so legitimate traffic flows and attacks don't.

  • Provider-agnostic policy across Cloudflare, Akamai, Imperva, AWS, Azure, GCP
  • False-positive reduction with staged, reviewable rule changes
  • Virtual patching for emerging CVEs before you can ship a fix
  • Custom rules mapped to your application's real attack surface
DEF-02

DDoS mitigation

Always-on L3–L7 protection with playbooks rehearsed before you need them, not improvised during an attack.

  • Layer 3/4 volumetric absorption at the edge
  • Layer 7 application-flood policies and adaptive rate limits
  • Runbooks per service tier with clear escalation paths
  • Post-incident reporting with traffic forensics
DEF-03

Bot & fraud defence

Behavioural scoring that separates customers from credential stuffers, scrapers and carding bots — without blunt blocks that cost you revenue.

  • Account-takeover, scraping and inventory-hoarding mitigation
  • Payment and signup fraud signal correlation
  • Challenge strategies tuned to conversion, not just security
  • Feedback loop into Ilmexus Intelligence threat feeds
DEF-04

Monitoring & incident response

A defence team watching your edge around the clock, triaging signal from noise and acting on a defined mandate.

  • 24/7 monitoring with human triage, not just alerts
  • Defined response mandate — you decide what we can change
  • Incident comms and timeline you can hand to stakeholders
  • Monthly tuning, reporting and posture review
Platforms
