The Challenge

Growing cyber threats for Local Governments

The District of Regensburg operates numerous digital services – from citizen portals to infrastructure and specialist applications. In times of increasingly sophisticated DDoS attacks, bot-waves and targeted web exploits, the challenge was to ensure continuous availability, high performance, and legal compliance (e.g., GDPR, critical infrastructure regulations) simultaneously. Internal resources were limited, which required a flexible, effective security model.

The solution

Holistic Protection with Myra Security

The District of Regensburg chose Myra Security as its Security-as-a-Service partner. The solution portfolio bundles WAF, DDoS Protection, Bot Management, and CDN, hosted on German infrastructure – protecting more than 150 domains and applications. Focus areas include: data protection and compliance standards, reducing dependency on non-European providers and strengthening digital sovereignty via local operation.

We do not want any critical dependencies on non-European providers and rely on tested, certified security from Germany.

The implementation

Rapid Deployment – Minimal Disruption

Implementation was carried out while operations were ongoing, without interrupting the digital services. Within a short time Myra Security was fully integrated – including automated attack detection, TLS/SSL automation and monitoring. During a real attack wave, the protection achieved over 99% blocked malicious requests, while user access remained uninterrupted. At the same time the new setup significantly reduced the internal IT team’s workload.
