web application firewalls (wafs)
Web application firewalls (WAFs) are security measures implemented to protect web applications from various types of cyber threats. They act as a barrier between the web application and the internet, monitoring and filtering incoming and outgoing traffic, and identifying and blocking potentially malicious activities. WAFs help to prevent unauthorized access, data breaches, and other web-based attacks by analyzing HTTP traffic and applying security policies to ensure the safety and integrity of web applications.
