Reblaze Rolls Out Managed Reverse Proxy Security Service>
Security Boulevard – Michael Vizard
Reblaze this week made generally available a managed cloud service, dubbed Curiefense, through which it provides a web application firewall, application programming interface (API) security, bot management, traffic control and distributed denial of service (DDoS) capabilities, among others.

Tzury Bar Yochay, Reblaze CTO, said Curiefense, at its core, is a managed reverse proxy service designed to be deployed as a virtual cloud based on containers in a matter of minutes. Designed to be integrated with cloud services from Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft, Google and Digital Ocean as well as content delivery networks (CDNs), the virtual cloud platform is accessed via a web console. Curiefense also makes use of machine learning algorithms to analyze internet traffic patterns; in addition, biometric and behavioral analysis tools can block bots that evade traditional bot mitigation techniques by mimicking human actions. As the amount of bot-generated traffic on the internet increases, eliminating what amounts to unnecessary overhead both reduces potential threats and lowers the amount of IT infrastructure consumed by bot traffic.
