Application Secret Scanner is a security preventive control that finds credentials before they spread for software security and abuse resistance. It uses pattern matching, entropy checks, and allowlists so teams can stop accidental key exposure while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The security team used Application Secret Scanner when a form received unusual input, so the team could stop accidental key exposure before the risk review began.”
CDN Traffic Shaper is a networking control mechanism that limits or prioritizes flows across links for content delivery and edge caching. It uses queues, rate limits, and quality-of-service rules so teams can protect important traffic while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The network engineering team used CDN Traffic Shaper when a cache region served an asset, so the team could protect important traffic before traffic crossed a service boundary.”
Data Loss Abuse Throttle is a security anti-abuse control that slows or blocks suspicious repeated behavior for sensitive data exposure risk. It uses rate limits, reputation signals, and challenge steps so teams can protect public access without a login wall while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The security team used Data Loss Abuse Throttle when a report included private metadata, so the team could protect public access without a login wall before the risk review began.”
Endpoint Phishing Resistance is a security identity control that reduces success of credential theft attacks for user device and server protection. It uses passkeys, hardware-backed factors, and origin checks so teams can protect sign-in flows while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The security team used Endpoint Phishing Resistance when a workstation reported suspicious activity, so the team could protect sign-in flows before the risk review began.”
Endpoint Evidence Chain is a security audit record that preserves how security evidence was collected and handled for user device and server protection. It uses timestamps, hashes, owners, and storage controls so teams can support trustworthy investigation while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The security team used Endpoint Evidence Chain when a workstation reported suspicious activity, so the team could support trustworthy investigation before the risk review began.”
Secrets Detection Rule is a security security analytic that matches suspicious behavior or known indicators for keys, tokens, and credentials. It uses logs, thresholds, signatures, and behavioral context so teams can surface actionable alerts while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The security team used Secrets Detection Rule when a secret appeared in logs, so the team could surface actionable alerts before the risk review began.”
Identity Attack Surface is a security exposure model that lists reachable systems, actions, and trust boundaries for user and workload identity. It uses asset inventory, route discovery, and permission mapping so teams can prioritize risk reduction while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The security team used Identity Attack Surface when a service account requested access, so the team could prioritize risk reduction before the risk review began.”
Latency Egress Policy is a networking outbound control that decides where workloads may send traffic for time between request and response. It uses allowlists, identity, and logging so teams can reduce exfiltration and SSRF risk while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The network engineering team used Latency Egress Policy when a user saw slow responses, so the team could reduce exfiltration and SSRF risk before traffic crossed a service boundary.”
Latency Ingress Rule is a networking boundary rule that controls how external traffic enters a service for time between request and response. It uses hostnames, paths, protocols, and policy checks so teams can keep entry points predictable while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The network engineering team used Latency Ingress Rule when a user saw slow responses, so the team could keep entry points predictable before traffic crossed a service boundary.”
CDN Anycast Endpoint is a networking routing pattern that advertises one address from multiple locations for content delivery and edge caching. It uses regional announcements, health checks, and traffic steering so teams can serve users from nearby healthy sites while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The network engineering team used CDN Anycast Endpoint when a cache region served an asset, so the team could serve users from nearby healthy sites before traffic crossed a service boundary.”
