INTRODUCTION
A Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a
specialized security system designed to
monitor, filter, and protect HTTP/HTTPS traffic
between a web application and the Internet.
Unlike traditional firewalls that operate at the
network level, a WAF functions at the
application layer (Layer 7 of the OSI model),
providing targeted protection for web
applications.

CHALLENGES
Cyber threats are constantly evolving, with
attackers developing new techniques and
exploiting new vulnerabilities. WAF solution
providers must stay ahead of these threats
through continuous learning and adaptation.
First Challenge
Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) are essential
tools for securing web applications against cyber
threats. As organizations increasingly rely on
digital platforms for business operations, WAF
solution providers play a critical role in
protecting these platforms from various forms of
attack. However, the role of a WAF solution
provider comes with a unique set of challenges.
One of the biggest challenges is balancing robust
security with optimal performance. Aggressive
security measures can impact application
performance, so providers must fine-tune their
WAF solutions to achieve the right balance.

Traffic Monitoring and Filtering:
WAFs analyze incoming and outgoing
HTTP/HTTPS traffic to identify and block
malicious requests. This involves
inspecting request headers, URLs, and
payloads for potential threats.
Threat Detection and Prevention:
WAFs employ various techniques, such
as signature-based detection, anomaly
detection, and behavioral analysis, to
identify suspicious activities and
prevent attacks.
Protection Against Common Attacks:
WAFs are designed to defend against
common web application attacks such as SQL
injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), cross-
site request forgery (CSRF), and Distributed
Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
