Key Features

Protego combines high-speed proxy protection, specialized rule sets, real-time monitoring, and expert human oversight to deliver comprehensive security for your gaming platform.

Protego Agents

High-speed proxy servers written in Elixir that validate all traffic, check route validity, flag suspicious activity, and block malicious IPs with minimal latency.

Control Center

Cloud-based management system for creating and managing security rules, making automatic decisions about blocking, and providing notifications about attacks.

Real-Time Analytics

Comprehensive dashboard showing traffic patterns, blocked attempts, suspicious activity, and actionable insights to improve your security posture.

Flexible Deployment

Multiple installation options including as a microservice, sidecar, or frontend, adapting perfectly to your existing infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Protego replace our existing WAF or Cloudflare?

No, Protego is designed to complement your existing security infrastructure, not replace it. It adds a specialized gaming-focused security layer that works alongside general-purpose WAFs for comprehensive protection.

How much latency does Protego add?

Protego is built for high performance, adding less than 2ms per request in typical deployments. The Elixir-based proxy is significantly faster than other alternatives.

What happens if the Control Center loses connection with Agents?

Agents can operate autonomously in two modes: Ban Mode (continues blocking according to last-known rules) or Bypass Mode (allows all traffic). You determine which fallback mode is appropriate for your environment.

What kind of gaming-specific attacks does Protego detect?

Protego detects parameter tampering (e.g., negative bet amounts), wrong command injection, script-based game automation (bots), mathematical model extraction attempts, and game logic exploitation.
