What is Myra Security
Myra Security is a cloud-based web security platform focused on protecting internet-facing applications and infrastructure from DDoS attacks and other web threats. It typically sits in front of web applications as a reverse proxy to provide DDoS mitigation, web application firewall (WAF) controls, and optional content delivery acceleration. It is used by security and operations teams that need managed protection for public websites, APIs, and online services, particularly where availability and compliance requirements are high.
Integrated DDoS and WAF stack
The product combines DDoS mitigation and WAF capabilities in a single service, reducing the need to stitch together multiple point tools. This is useful for teams that want one control plane for availability and application-layer protection. It also supports common deployment patterns where traffic is routed through the provider before reaching origin infrastructure.
Reverse-proxy deployment model
Myra Security’s proxy-based approach can be implemented without installing software on application servers. This can speed up onboarding for externally exposed web properties and APIs and centralize policy enforcement. It also allows security controls to be applied consistently across multiple domains and applications.
Security-focused edge capabilities
Compared with products primarily designed for media optimization or asset management in adjacent spaces, Myra Security centers on threat mitigation and security policy enforcement at the edge. This focus aligns with use cases such as protecting login pages, transactional sites, and public-sector or regulated services. The platform’s feature set is oriented toward resilience and attack handling rather than image/CDN-only workflows.
Less emphasis on media workflows
Organizations looking for advanced image transformation, digital asset management, or developer-focused media pipelines may find the platform less specialized for those needs. In adjacent CDN/media tooling, features like automated asset optimization and rich transformation APIs are often core. With Myra Security, those capabilities are not the primary focus.
Potential vendor lock-in at edge
Because the service typically terminates and proxies traffic, configurations and security policies can become tightly coupled to the provider’s edge. Migrating away may require DNS, TLS, and routing changes plus re-implementation of WAF rules and rate limits. This can increase switching effort compared with simpler origin-side controls.
Limited transparency on pricing
Security edge services often use traffic-based or risk-based pricing that can be hard to estimate during procurement. Without clear public rate cards for all scenarios, buyers may need a sales-led process to model costs for peak events and attack conditions. This can slow down evaluation compared with self-serve tools.
