The Streetlight Doesn’t Stop the Wolf
R6 Security: The Prolexic for the AI Era (Except Smarter, Faster, Deadlier)
Prolexic built walls. Big pipes. Bigger scrubbing centers. When DDoS storms hit, they swallowed the flood so you didn’t drown. No dashboards. No smoke. Just uptime and smug press releases. Akamai bought them. They folded the tech into the edge. Everyone slept better.
Lesson: specialized defense scales. Metrics don’t.
Now look around. The bad guys aren’t stupid. They read your code. Probe your AI models. Sniff around your endpoints. They are ghosts in your infrastructure. Static defenses? Cute. Dashboards? Priceless if you like staring at failure.
AMTD. Automated Moving Target Defense. Four words. One idea: move the target so attackers can’t get a foothold. Configs rotate. Ports shuffle. Microservices terminate. Policies adapt. Edge-first. Low-latency. Fully automatic. You can’t hit what doesn’t stay still.
Most of the cyber companies these days? They’ll sell you dashboards. They’ll brag about “full visibility.” They see the curb while the wolf is chewing your doorframe. We don’t sell maps. We move the city.
Dashboards = reactive. AMTD = proactive.
Metrics = hope. AMTD = denial of persistence.
Analysts = noise. AMTD = chaos engineering for attackers.
We rotate. Terminate. Replace. Shuffle. The attack chain your adversary relies on? Broken before they even know it exists.
Other vendors call their observability and visibility products “security.” It’s a sales pitch wrapped in false reassurance. Clients pay analysts to watch logs while IP leaks. We stop leaks. End of story.
We don’t patch holes. We rearrange the walls. We change the streets. We make the map meaningless.
Prolexic kept the water out. We make the shoreline impossible to hit.
