What Vercel Security does
Vercel Security is the set of protections built into every Vercel deployment. The Vercel Firewall gives automatic, system-wide and L3/L4 protection at every edge location, including DDoS mitigation, at no charge on all plans. On top of it, the Web Application Firewall lets teams write custom rules to log, block, challenge or rate-limit traffic, BotID detects bots without CAPTCHAs or API keys, Challenge Mode shows visitors a verification step while a site is under attack, and a managed OWASP Top 10 ruleset is available on Enterprise. Vercel lists ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type 2, PCI DSS and GDPR. Firewall basics are free; Pro and Enterprise plans add password protection, audit logs and help with larger attacks.
