Web Application Firewall

A Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a layer 7 Firewall (often called proxy firewalls). Because it acts on the application layer, it may inspect the contents of the traffic, blocking specified content, such as certain websites, viruses and attempts to exploit known logical flaws in client software.

ZION SECURITY offers as well commercial Web Application Firewall solutions like F5 and Profense, as open source solutions like Modsecurity. Our security operations team can install and configure these types of WAF's in your infrastructure.  

However the disadvantage of a WAF is that the monitoring of the WAF needs a certain level of web security expertise. This is one of the main reasons why most organizations do not have yet a WAF installed. That's why ZION SECURITY has developed a unique solution, called ZION SECURED WAMAF.

ZION SECURED WAMAF is Security-as-a-Service and completely managed and monitored by our web security experts. ZION SECURED WAMAF protects your web site(s) and web server(s) against attacks and generates detailed reports of detected attacks. More information on www.zionsecured.com.

By using a combination of a WAF with our vulnerability assessment solution ZION VERIFIED, organizations can rest assured that their web applications are secure. The website will be protected to the maximum and your developers will learn how to write secure code in the long run.
