An evolving risk landscape demands active protection

The digital transformation creates new types of risks at an accelerated pace for organisations. F5's Advanced Web Application Firewall (WAF) helps organisations to address and manage these evolving risks and challenges.

Why the F5 Networks Web Application Firewall (WAF)?

For many organisations apps are their business. Unfortunately, applications are also the initial target in 53 percent of breaches, making web attacks the leading cause of data breaches. Despite the best efforts of secure application- and patch-management processes, half of all applications remain vulnerable 24x7.

Web Application Firewalls (WAF) protect your applications from data breaches by fixing vulnerabilities and stopping attacks. F5's Advanced Web Application Firewal provides application-layer encryption, API inspection, malicious bot protection, and even behaviour analytics to help defend against application attacks.

Without having to update the apps themselves, F5 Advanced WAF protects against the most prevalent attacks on your apps:

  • Automated attacks and bots that can overwhelm application resources
  • Attacks that steal application credentials or take advantage of compromised accounts
  • Application-layer attacks that evade signature- and reputation-based security solutions
  • New attack surfaces and threats due to the rapid adoption of APIs
  • Bots that target browser-based and mobile clients

Unique capabilities setting F5's WAF apart

F5 Advanced WAF identifies and blocks attacks that many other WAF solutions don’t, due to missing defend mechanism capabilities. From L7 DDoS detection that uses machine learning and behavioral analytics, to application-layer encryption to protect against credential and data theft. This is why F5's Advanced Web Application Firewalls include features that are unique in the WAF market.
