According to an industry report, over 75% of cybersecurity attacks target the web application layer. Additionally, statistics indicate that more than two-thirds of websites lack adequate security measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With digital transformation, organizations are moving more business operations to the Internet. New-generation applications are accessed through various channels like the Web and APIs, leading to increased application exposure risks and difficulty in chain control. Various ever-evolving attacks, such as brute force attacks on databases, web scraping, and API misuse, exacerbate web security risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These threats pose immeasurable risks to organizations. For instance, web page tampering can damage an organization’s reputation, while leaks of sensitive information and ransomware attacks lead to financial losses. DDoS attacks disrupt business operations, and the persistent nature of Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) poses continuous risks. With various threats prevailing, safeguarding web applications becomes an urgent priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NSFOCUS WAF can collaborate with multiple security products, achieving comprehensive integrated security protection for web applications. The devices and platforms that WAF can work with include Anti-DDoS System (ADS), Threat Intelligence (TI), Web Vulnerability Scanning System (WVSS), Intelligent Security Operations Platform (ISOP), the central management platform ESPC, and Unified Threat Sensor (UTS).<\/p>\n\n\n

To address the various threats faced by users, NSFOCUS Next-Generation WAF comprehensive functionalities include traditional web application firewall, API protection, Bot traffic management, and DDoS protection, ensuring the security of organizations’ web applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NSFOCUS WAF has accumulated over 15 years of web protection rules, combining semantic analysis, smart detection engine, and threat intelligence to comprehensively identify various web attacks. It not only intercepts various common web attacks but also supports defense against zero-day attacks, with extremely low rates of false positives and false negatives.<\/p>\n\n\n

Integration of WAF and Anti-DDoS System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NSFOCUS WAF supports integration with the Anti-DDoS System (ADS), providing a more robust combined solution for web security and DDoS protection. When the traffic detected by WAF exceeds the set threshold, WAF automatically informs ADS. ADS, with higher processing capabilities, automatically mitigates and cleanses abnormal traffic, then redirects normal traffic back to WAF, providing comprehensive web security protection.<\/p>\n\n\n

Integration of WAF and Threat Intelligence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Through integration with NSFOCUS Threat Intelligence (NTI), NSFOCUS WAF obtains the latest high-risk IP reputation database in real time and generates protection policies on WAF. IP reputation data types include DDoS attacks, security vulnerabilities, junk emails, web attacks, scanning sources, and botnet clients. By enabling IP reputation, it effectively prevents brute force attacks targeting databases and taking advantage of vulnerability to obtain maximum benefits, while also significantly reducing the alert noise of suspected attack behaviors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, by integrating with NTI, NSFOCUS WAF can automatically identify the geo-locations of source IP addresses based on a GeoIP library, allowing selective access or blocking of specified regions according to customer business needs.<\/p>\n\n\n
