Web Application Firewall or better known as WAF helps to protect and monitor your web applications and the internet from any attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site forgery, file inclusion, cross-site-scripting (XSS), and more. WAF is a Layer 7 protocol defense, which indicates that WAF is a type of firewall that operates on the OSI model’s 7th layer. WAF was not originally designed to protect against all cyberattacks. This attack mitigation method is usually a part of tools that create comprehensive protection against a range of attack points. Therefore, WAF is able to protect your website from web-based attacks on its application layer.
The value of WAF comes from the speed and ease to create your own custom rules that can be implemented for a faster response to various attacks. Infinyscloud’s experts are more than able to help you maintain your website and its WAF. Furthermore, we can help you to protect all of your applications and APIs from well-known attacks and bad traffic patterns without changing your application or infrastructure.

- WAF analyzes GET and POST requests from HTTP and applied rules that define which is true or suspicious.
- Our WAF is able to protect against OWASP, the top 10 most common and important security risks to web applications.
- Our experts can help you launch one of the three methods of analyzing and filtering HTTP contents which are whitelisting, blacklisting, and hybrid security.
Infinyscloud provides WAF also as a reverse proxy which means it's placed in front of web servers before reaching the client's web browser. Reverse-proxy is beneficial for your business. This implementation helps to increase your security, performance, and reliability.
- Reverse-proxy can handle load balancing solutions that distribute all of the incoming traffic evenly to different servers to prevent an overloaded server.
- It’s obvious for a reverse proxy like WAF to secure your site thoroughly. It is because the original server doesn’t need to reveal its original IP address and this makes it much harder for attackers to pinpoint their attacks against your website.
- A reverse proxy can also cache content like how CDN works for better speed performance.
