Reblaze, offered by Data Shepherd, is a cloud-based web security platform that operates as a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) to filter and block hostile traffic before it reaches a client's web assets. Deployment is DNS-based — no software installation is required. A simple DNS change redirects traffic through Reblaze's cloud infrastructure, where it is inspected and filtered. Reblaze is designed to protect websites, applications, and services against a broad range of web-based threats, including: - Hackers and unauthorized intrusions - DoS and DDoS attacks - Web scraping and data theft - Other forms of hostile web traffic Legitimate traffic passes through unimpeded, while malicious traffic is blocked. The platform is built on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) architecture and is stated to comply with international information security standards. Reblaze can be deployed as a standalone security solution or layered on top of existing security infrastructure. Clients can use the full suite of protections or opt for specific services such as DDoS protection only. Once deployed, the platform is managed by Data Shepherd's security team, which applies countermeasures as new threats emerge — no ongoing action is required from the client. Core capabilities span WAF, DDoS mitigation, and bot mitigation.
