Modern governments face sophisticated cyber threats that put critical infrastructure, citizen data, and public trust at risk. Nexusguard’s Patriot Net is a turnkey, adaptive solution designed to protect nations from these threats. Built on Nexusguard’s advanced technology and global expertise, Patriot Net provides real-time DDoS protection through a sovereign defense platform tailored to national security needs.

The Challenge for Large Networks

Managing a large-scale network with hundreds or thousands of IP addresses is inherently complex. Each IP address serves different purposes, hosts different applications, and faces unique vulnerabilities. Traditional, one-size-fits-all mitigation policies often fall short because:

Global rules lack precision

Applying the same policies across all resources can lead to unnecessary disruptions or missed threats.

High false positive rates

Generic rules can mistakenly block legitimate traffic, frustrating users and harming operations.

Operational inefficiency

Fine-tuning broad policies consumes time and resources, especially for networks spanning multiple IP ranges.

The Solution – Multilevel, Customizable Policies

To overcome these challenges, Nexusguard’s Origin Protection enables large networks to adopt a smarter, more nuanced approach to DDoS mitigation:

Enhance Precision

Tailor protection at multiple levels—global, network, or host—ensuring each resource has the right level of security. This reduces over-blocking and ensures legitimate traffic flows uninterrupted.

Improve Scalability

With customizable policies, CSPs and enterprises can manage hundreds of networks or IP ranges without compromising performance or security.

Streamline Operations

By grouping similar resources (e.g., production servers, databases) and applying dedicated rules to each group, teams can save time on policy management while improving accuracy.

Gain Visibility

Custom policies provide clear insights into malicious traffic and real-time attack data, enabling faster, more informed decisions.

How Multilevel Policies Work

Nexusguard’s Origin Protection adopts a multi-layered approach that balances global oversight with localized precision:
Global Policies

Establish overarching mitigation rules to ensure a strong baseline of protection across the network.

Site-Level Policies

Apply site-specific rules for key resources, such as groups of servers or applications, to address unique vulnerabilities effectively.

Host-Level Customization

Drill down to individual IP addresses for the most granular control, reducing false positives while blocking malicious traffic

Benefits for Large Networks
