Firewall & WAF.

Stateful firewalling and a web application firewall with managed and custom rule sets.

⌗ Networking
Overview

Network and application-layer defence in one: stateful firewalling for your virtual networks and a web application firewall that blocks the OWASP Top 10 and your own custom rules.

How it works

Three steps to running.

01
Set network policy

Centralized stateful ingress/egress rules across networks and accounts.

02
Protect the app

Managed WAF rules for OWASP Top 10 plus your custom signatures.

03
Tune & watch

Rate limits, geo-blocks and bot challenges, with every decision logged.

What you get

Firewall & WAF, in full.

Stateful firewall

Centralized egress/ingress policy across networks and accounts.

Managed WAF rules

Maintained protections for OWASP Top 10 and common CVEs.

Custom rules

Rate limits, geo-blocks and signatures tuned to your app.

Bot management

Detect and challenge automated abuse at the edge.

API-first

Provision it in a few lines.

Every service is reachable from the same SDK, CLI and infrastructure-as-code — one identity, one bill, one audit trail across the whole catalog.

Why one platform

On one model, not stitched together.

The usual stack runs firewall & waf in one product, the model in another and the data in a third — and the seams between them are the cost. Aether Cloud runs it on the same platform that serves the model, governs your identity and deploys into your boundary, with the rest of the catalog one hop away.

One platform

No stitching a vector DB to one place, a warehouse to another and a model to a third — firewall & waf sits next to the rest of the catalog, one identity, one bill.

The model is here

The provider that runs Aether runs your firewall & waf — so the data and the model never leave the same governed boundary to talk to each other.

Built on demand

Need a capability that isn’t here yet? The model writes and deploys it into the same boundary — the catalog is a starting point, not a ceiling.

FAQ

Good to know.

How does this compare to AWS WAF or Azure Firewall?

Network firewalling and an app WAF in one — managed rules plus custom, governed centrally.

Does it handle bots?

Yes — detection and challenge of automated abuse at the edge.

Can I write custom rules?

Yes — rate limits, geo-blocks and signatures tuned to your app.
