Prevent Application Layer Attacks
Protect your web applications from advanced web-based attacks
Is your current WAF generating too many false positives?
Is your WAF generating too many false positives, resulting in increased operational costs, overwhelmed security teams, and a lack of effectiveness? There’s a better way to protect your business without compromising efficiency.

Protect Against Tomorrow’s Threats Today by Deploying a Next-gen WAF
Deploy a solution that delivers load balancing, comprehensive encryption/decryption capabilities, and an intelligent WAF with minimal false positives, eliminating the need for regular tuning. Ensure the availability and security of your web applications with a next-gen WAF.
Traditional Web Application Firewalls are Inadequate
50%
False positive rate of generated alerts
Outdated Regex or rule-based methods of detection result in low detection accuracy rate
57%
Highest percentage of vendor customers that deploy WAF in blocking mode
Traditional WAFs raise OPEX while being ineffective
25%
Median detection efficacy without heavy tuning
Traditional WAFs require heavy involvement and tuning for optimal efficacy; deep learning methods can help
Seamlessly and Simply Secure all Web Applications
Accurate, context-based intelligent detection and mitigation—bolstered by threat intelligence feeds—address both the volume and complexity of modern threats. An integrated next-gen WAF and ADC solution, designed for simple operation, easy deployment, and low false positives, can streamline security operations, increase web defense efficacy, and maximize application performance.
Proactively defend against web threats, and bolster existing defense
