The platform

CDN, WAF, DDoS scrubbing, Zero Trust and encryption share one data plane, one console and one API — so a rule written once protects every request, everywhere.

Architecture

Each request passes the same clean sequence. Most never need to travel past the second step.

01

HTTPS · QUIC

Client

Browsers and apps connect over TLS 1.3 or HTTP/3 to the Skytropic anycast address.

02

Anycast · cache

Edge PoP

The nearest point of presence answers from cache and enforces WAF and rate limits.

03

L3 – L7

Scrubber

Volumetric and application-layer floods are absorbed before they gather.

04

WireGuard · mTLS

Tunnel

What needs the origin travels through a sealed, pinned, key-rotated tunnel.

05

Your servers

Origin

Your infrastructure sees clean, authenticated traffic — and a fraction of it.

Inside the stack

An edge stack that grows with you — from a static site on a CDN to Zero Trust and post-quantum cryptography, configured from one console and one API.

01

CDN

HTTP/2 · HTTP/3, gzip/brotli, TTFB < 100 ms at a local PoP.

02

WAF

OWASP Top 10, rate limiting, ML anomaly detection. False positive < 0.1%.

03

DDoS Scrubber

Netflow, behavioral ML, mitigation time < 30 seconds.

04

Zero Trust

Device posture, OIDC/SAML, private WireGuard/mTLS tunnels.

05

Encryption Core

E2EE, AES-256, ChaCha20-Poly1305, TLS 1.3, HSM.

06

Edge Compute

Serverless at the network edge — without vendor lock-in.
