Real-time protection against cost-exploitation attacks on Next.js and Vercel deployments
Added Nov 27, 2025
Attackers can exploit Next.js serverless functions and API? routes for as little as 0.0001 cents per request, causing massive cloud bills or service downtime. Traditional DDoS protection doesn't address serverless pricing models, leaving developers vulnerable to cost-based attacks that specifically target Vercel's pay-per-invocation architecture.
A drop-in edge middleware that monitors traffic patterns to your Next.js API? routes and serverless functions, using ML?-based behavioral analysis to detect cost-exploitation attacks in real-time. Automatically blocks abusive requests, enforces intelligent rate limiting, and provides instant alerts with one-click mitigation to protect your cloud budget and uptime.
Serverless adoption is accelerating and Next.js has become the dominant React framework, making it a prime target for emerging cost-based attacks. Recent security discussions in the developer community have highlighted how trivially cheap these attacks are to execute, creating urgent demand for specialized protection.
