OptiFire is a self-hosted protection layer that sits in front of your services and stops abuse before it reaches them. It blocks DDoS floods, malicious bots, brute-force attempts, and intrusion patterns in real time — and it's deliberately built to allow legitimate traffic through, blocking only on confirmed attacks so your real users are never caught in the crossfire.
Rate limiting and traffic inspection that absorb floods and abusive request patterns without manual firefighting.
Spots automated tools and coordinated botnets by behaviour, not just simple signatures.
Detects and locks out credential-stuffing and login attacks, and watches for intrusion attempts on your servers.
Decoy traps and live threat intelligence catch attackers early and keep the defence current.
Allow-by-default: it stays invisible to genuine users and acts only on confirmed abuse — no aggressive challenges by default.
Self-hosted and self-contained — your traffic isn't routed through a third-party scrubbing service.
A single drop-in component instead of a sprawling security stack, with daily reports and alerts so you know it's working.
Tell us what you're building. No sales pitch — just an honest conversation about the shortest path to shipping it.
