Web Application
A Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a specialized security tool designed to filter, monitor, and block HTTP/HTTPS traffic to and from web applications. It protects against common web-based attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and cross-site request forgery (CSRF) by inspecting application-layer traffic against a set of rules or policies. WAFs can be deployed as hardware, software, or cloud services and are an essential layer of defense for any publicly accessible web application.
