SECURE NETWORK-AS-A-SERVICE

Security that starts the moment your network does

Lumen® NaaS (Network-as-a-Service) pairs on-demand programmable connectivity with built-in protection—so you can protect every port from the moment it goes live.

Scale your network. Not your risk.

Every new connection creates a new attack surface. With Lumen, you don't have to choose between speed and security or stitch together separate vendors, contracts and portals. NaaS gives you on-demand, programmable connectivity through a single platform—and you can add Lumen Defender ^SM and Lumen® DDoS Essentials through the same portal for added protection.

A Network-as-a-Service use-case diagram for Internet On-Demand with security. A top banner reads Lumen Connect, Self-service, UI & APIs, On-demand, with four captioned icons. On the left, an Internet traffic cloud connects through Lumen AS 3356, Tier-1 internet backbone, with attacked IPs diverted into a DDoS Essentials box, Volumetric DDoS protection that detects and scrubs attacks, and a Lumen Defender Plus box applying threat intelligence to block malicious traffic. Two arrows on the right show traffic discarded: Black Lotus Labs-identified high-volume bot/flood traffic, and Defender-identified malicious traffic. Clean traffic is delivered to an Internet On-Demand box (Provision, Scale, Manage; Elastic capacity, Cost predictability, SLA-backed delivery) and on through a Lumen provider edge to the Customer location.
