 Ensure Protection from Web Attacks and DDoS
The WAF protects applications, APIs, and mobile app backends against a variety of attacks including the OWASP Top 10, zero-day threats, data leakage, and application-layer denial of service (DoS) attacks.
Barracuda Active DDoS Prevention—an add-on service for the Web Application Firewall—filters out volumetric DDoS attacks before they ever reach your network and harm your apps.

 Protect APIs and Mobile Apps
API’s are the critical backbone for every connected service and ensuring and maintaining the security and availability of API’s are increasingly critical for businesses.
The Web Application Firewall provides comprehensive security and availability for API’s. It can secure both XML and JSON API’s against all types of attacks, including API farming and scraping.

 Block Malicious Bots and Automated Attacks
More than half of internet traffic is generated by automated bots. A significant part of this automated traffic is malicious – either bots that scrape and steal your data for profit, or automated attacks to compromise your web applications.
The WAFs Advanced Bot Protection uses cloud based machine learning to provide bot spam detection, credential stuffing prevention, request risk scoring and client finger printing.

 Secure App Delivery and Increase Availability
All applications today need to be delivered securely over HTTPS. However slow-loading and unsecure applications are not only frustrating for everyone but can expose sensitive information.
The Web Application Firewall helps you enable HTTPS quickly and easily with a hardened SSL/TLS stack and performance acceleration capabilities, ensuring fast, secure and reliable access to all your web-facing applications.

 Control Access and Authentication
WAF Control Center provides a central point of control for all your WAF deployments. it simplifies management, helps ensure up-to-date policies, and provides the tools necessary to deliver ongoing security for your applications wherever they reside.
Furthermore, role-based access controls enables DevOps, SecOps, and NetOps teams to manage security at every stage of the application lifecycle with single pane-of-glass simplicity.

 Automate and Orchestrate Security
To address the need for security tools that integrate with continuous deployment (CI/CD) processes, the WAF provides a fully featured REST API and integrates with automation tools such as Terraform, AWS, Azure ARM Templates and more to enable DevOps to seamlessly build security directly into the application development lifecycle.
Orchestrating the security is just one part of the process - Barracuda Vulnerability Remediation Service enables SecOps teams to automate the vulnerability identification and remediation process to ensure a continuously robust security strategy as applications evolve.
