What is Managed Web Application Firewall (WAF) Services?

Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a form of firewall which controls access to web applications by monitoring and potentially blocking web traffic which does not meet the configured security policy requirements for the web application. 

 

WAF helps customers working towards compliance with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) and helps protect web applications against the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top Ten vulnerabilities and threats.

 

Benefits of Managed Web Application Firewall (WAF) Services

The WAF service is a fully managed security service providing application layer security measures that help protect Web applications as well as the underlying servers and databases from hackers and cybercriminals.

 

Managed WAF Service works to implement the service without interrupting legitimate traffic to the web application.  Once the service is turned up, Web Application Firewall will deliver optimum protection against Web application threats by providing features that will help block inappropriate or malicious application traffic, provide comprehensive security, and a PCI compliance summary report.
