Nivoli Edge

• Full-Page Edge Caching

  Caches whole pages on the Cloudflare node nearest each visitor, tagged with Surrogate-Keys so one post save purges only the affected pages via stale-while-revalidate.

• Asset URL Versioning

  Gives stylesheets, scripts and fonts addresses that change on purge, so browsers pick up updated files immediately instead of serving stale ones for up to a week.

• Edge Image Optimization

  Rewrites images at the WordPress filter boundary and transforms them on the fly via Cloudflare Image Resizing: right-sized per device, WebP or AVIF per browser.

• Origin Shield

  When the origin errors or stops responding, serves the last good cached copy for up to 7 days, with email alerts when the shield engages and when the server recovers.

• Pre-PHP Security Shields

  Seven shields enforced at the edge before WordPress boots: stray-.php 404s, wp-admin IP lock, login rate limiting, AI-crawler blocking, login country lock, XML-RPC 410, security headers pack.

• Cookieless Audience Analytics

  Measures pageviews, countries, referrers and devices at the edge, no JavaScript snippet, no cookies and no consent banner; bots counted separately.

• Edge URL Rules

  Answers dead routes with cached 410s and maps redirects from the edge with per-rule fired counts; one-click block from the error log.

• Surgical Purge

  Dispatches purge requests non-blocking by Surrogate-Key tags on save, delete and comment events; purge triggers can be locked to your own IPs.

• Coverage Audit & Repair

  Weekly re-run measures the optimized share and emails on regression; the runtime misses log groups uncovered images into one-click rules; fake-image scan repairs HTML-disguised-as-JPG files.

• Broken & Heavy Image Tools

  404 inbox from real edge failures, where-used lookups with edit links, a heaviest-images list with one-click Tinify shrink, and a scan for images that never load.

Traceable Application & API Security Platform

• API Discovery & Posture Management

  Automatically discover every API from live production traffic including REST, GraphQL, gRPC, SOAP, and WebSocket. Identifies shadow, zombie, and orphaned APIs with continuous risk assessment.

• Runtime WAAP Protection

  Cloud-native WAF and API protection against OWASP Top 10, OWASP API Top 10, SQL injection, XSS, and application-layer attacks with behavioral ML detection.

• API Security Testing (AST)

  Zero-config security tests generated from real and replayed traffic. Integrated with CI/CD pipelines for automated pre-production vulnerability discovery. No inactive endpoint noise.

• Bot Protection

  Advanced bot detection using behavioral analysis, volumetric detection, browser/device anomaly detection, and custom policies. Distinguishes legitimate bots from malicious automation.

• DDoS Protection

  Mitigates large-scale traffic floods and application-layer DDoS attacks with rate limiting and anomaly-based detection.

• Sensitive Data Discovery

  Automatically identify API endpoints handling sensitive data (PII, financial, regulated) without appropriate authentication or zero-trust policies.

• AI-Powered Insights

  AI chatbot for natural-language queries about APIs, threats, and exposures. AI explains detected issues, assesses severity, and recommends remediation in developer-friendly language.

• WAF Integration

  Integrates with existing WAFs (AWS WAF, Cloudflare) to add API context and advanced threat detection without replacing your current security stack.
