Protect your website from being defaced and protect sensitive data that is exposed to the web with a web application firewall. A web application firewall performs inspection on the traffic coming to your webserver and stops attackers from reaching it.

Why do I need it?

Because of the nature of web servers they must be exposed to a high degree to the internet. This leaves them vulnerable to several types of attacks such as SQL Injection and Cross-site Scripting among others. A WAF will detect and prevent these types of attacks before they reach the webserver. WAF provides immediate protection for web applications, prevents information theft and protects the flow of mission-critical web traffic

How does it work?

The WAF sits between the internet and your web server and limits access to the operating system of your webserver. It then applies a set of rules to the HTTP conversations passing through to the webserver. These rules are regularly updated to include the most up to date attack definitions which provide the greatest security available
