Why Businesses Should Consider Managed Cloud-Based WAF Protection
2020-03-02 04:05

WAF is not a new technology and has been around for a while now, where many organizations have some form of WAF deployed.

Static WAF rules in traditional WAF do not provide visibility to application vulnerabilities, nor do they provide complete protection when it comes to the everchanging threat landscape.

Unlike traditional vendors, AppTrana does not give default rules and ask customer to manage them, instead, it starts with understanding the risk profile of application through its detection module which scans the application for vulnerabilities, based on the detection, rules are written and tweaked to meet the application need ensuring there are no FPs with very little FNs. Being a wholly managed WAF, the rules are tweaked by AppTrana's security experts who have years of experience handling WAF security for thousands of sites, so they know what they are doing.

To conclude, Managed Cloud WAF, like AppTrana, is the perfect solution to the problem that traditional WAF deployments face.

The entire WAF infrastructure is handled by the Cloud WAF players.
