The Perforlabs Predictive Defense Fabric provides comprehensive protection for critical infrastructure through an integrated architecture of six components working in concert to detect, predict, and respond to cyber threats.
Platform Architecture
Our solutions organize into four functional layers that work together to provide defense in depth.
Signal Collection Layer
Three specialized collectors gather intelligence from different vantage points across your infrastructure. Pulse monitors BGP routing to detect topology changes and routing anomalies. Flux captures network flow data to provide visibility into traffic patterns and behaviors. Pythia analyzes DNS queries to identify the earliest indicators of threats. These diverse signal sources provide the comprehensive visibility required for effective threat detection.
Intelligence Layer
Augur serves as the intelligence layer, correlating signals from Pulse, Flux, and Pythia with external threat intelligence to generate actionable threat predictions. AI-powered analysis identifies attack patterns, predicts threat development, and provides the intelligence needed for automated defensive responses.
Orchestration Layer
Aegis coordinates the translation of threat intelligence into concrete security policies and manages their distribution to enforcement points across your infrastructure. Topology-aware policy placement ensures that protective measures deploy at optimal locations for maximum effectiveness.
Enforcement Layer
xfw provides high-performance packet filtering and policy enforcement at network edge points using eBPF technology. Microsecond-latency processing enables real-time threat response, while enforcement telemetry feeds back to the intelligence layer for continuous improvement.
Integrated Defense
The power of the Perforlabs Predictive Defense Fabric comes from integration. Signals from multiple sources correlate to detect complex attacks that single-source monitoring would miss. Threat predictions drive automated policy deployment without manual intervention. Enforcement feedback refines threat detection models. This closed-loop architecture enables defenses that become more effective over time.
