What Is Edge Security Service?

EdgeSec (Edge Security) is a security protection service built on edge nodes.

ESA (Edge Security Acceleration) is a sub-product of EdgeSec. It provides cache acceleration and application security protection and supports multiple security functions, such as web attack defense, DDoS attack defense, and CC attack defense. ESA comprehensively improves the security protection capability of the acceleration network and ensures high-quality user experience and service security.

How It Works

When a user request reaches the EdgeSec acceleration network, the node identifies and intercepts various attack requests. EdgeSec supports anti-DDoS traffic cleaning. The EdgeSec engine analyzes the behavior of web, BOT, and CC attacks and updates interception policies to block malicious requests from reaching customers' origin servers, ensuring smooth and stable service access and implementing dynamic and static network acceleration.
