Web attacks are the leading cause of data breaches. Despite the best efforts of secure application- and patch-management processes, half of all applications remain vulnerable, 24x7.2 Web application firewalls (WAF) protect your applications from data breaches by fixing vulnerabilities and stopping attacks. F5 Advanced Web Application Firewall provides malicious bot protection, application-layer encryption, API inspection, and behavior analytics to help defend against application attacks. Attackers have embraced the use of automation to scan your applications for vulnerabilities, attack account credentials, or cause denial of service (DoS). F5’s proactive bot defenses stop automated attacks and leverage a combination of challenge- and behavior-based techniques to identify and filter out bot traffic. By stopping bad bots, you can eliminate many of these opportunistic attacks. Seventy-five percent of data breaches start with identity attacks. Advanced WAF includes F5 DataSafe to help encrypt data and credentials at the application-layer—without having to update the application. This encrypts the data as it passes through the Advanced WAF solution. Behavior analytics are a requirement for detecting blended attacks. Many layer 7 distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks are stealthy and may go undetected by traditional signatures and reputation-based solutions. Advanced WAF automatically learns the application behavior, then combines the behavioral heuristics of traffic with the server stress to determine DDoS conditions. This process provides the most accurate detection without false positives. Dynamic signatures are then created and deployed on the fly for real-time protection.
