Neurowall enables hosting providers to offer per-customer firewall protection and DDoS mitigation using standard Linux servers — no proprietary appliances, no per-rack hardware refresh cycles, full REST API for control panel integration.
Attacks against one customer affect shared infrastructure. Every neighbor on the same host feels the impact.
Dedicated firewall appliances are expensive per-rack and require periodic hardware refresh that multiplies with every customer added.
Separate security policies per customer require manual configuration that does not scale beyond a small customer count.
| Capability | Hosting Benefit |
|---|---|
| High-throughput filtering | Process traffic at near line rate on existing Linux servers — no hardware upgrades |
| Per-customer policies | Separate firewall rules per customer managed via REST API — scales to any number of customers |
| DDoS protection | Absorb volumetric attacks at XDP layer before they affect neighboring customers |
| Threat intelligence | Automatically block known malicious sources across all customer environments |
| REST API | Integrate firewall management into your existing hosting control panel |
| Monitoring | Per-customer Prometheus metrics — visibility and reporting for every tenant |
| Traditional Approach | Neurowall | |
|---|---|---|
| Hardware | Dedicated appliances per rack | Software on existing Linux servers |
| Hardware refresh | Required every 3–5 years | No proprietary hardware |
| API automation | Limited | Full REST API for control panel integration |
| Licensing | Per-appliance | Simple deployment-based |
| Vendor lock-in | Yes | Standard Linux infrastructure |
Offer firewall-as-a-service and DDoS protection as paid add-ons. Security features differentiate your hosting from commodity providers.
DDoS mitigation at the edge prevents attack traffic from affecting neighboring customers on shared infrastructure.
Run on Linux servers you already operate. No proprietary firewall appliances to purchase, maintain, or refresh.
Add filtering capacity by deploying additional Linux instances. No appliance procurement lead times.
API-driven management reduces manual work. Integrate with your control panel to provision customer firewalls automatically.
Security features help retain customers who would otherwise move to providers with built-in DDoS protection.
