Web Application Firewall (WAF)
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
Definition
- Web Application Firewall (WAF) keeps web services stable and secure. It examines all HTTP and HTTPS requests to detect and block the following attacks: Structured Query Language (SQL) injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), web shells, command and code injections, file inclusion, sensitive file access, third-party vulnerability exploits, Challenge Collapsar (CC) attacks, malicious crawlers, and cross-site request forgery (CSRF)
Functions
- WAF detects and filters out malicious attack traffic, and returns normal traffic to the origin server to ensure that the origin server is secure, stable, and available
- You can configure enterprise-grade policies to protect your website more precisely, including custom alarm pages, combining multiple conditions in a CC attack protection rule, and blacklisting or whitelisting a large number of IP addresses
