Web Application Firewalls

A Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a security system that protects websites and online services from malicious attacks. It sits between your website and the internet, monitoring all incoming traffic for signs of harmful activity or threats, such as hacking attempts or data breaches. By filtering and blocking suspicious requests, a WAF helps ensure that only legitimate visitors can access your website’s resources. Essentially, it acts like a gatekeeper, guarding your digital assets and helping maintain the website's security, performance, and reliability.
