Web Application Firewall

Web Application Firewall for protect your website from hacking

A web application firewall (WAF) is an application firewall for HTTP applications. It applies a set of rules to an HTTP conversation. Generally, these rules cover common attacks such as cross-site scripting (XSS) and SQL injection. A Web application firewall (WAF) is a firewall that monitors, filters or blocks the HTTP traffic to and from a Web application. A WAF protects a Web application by controlling its input and output and the access to and from the application

Traditional Firewalls or Web Application Firewalls?

Traditional firewalls protect IT environments against external attacks, by allowing and blocking connections to certain areas.

These firewalls control incoming and outgoing network traffic, based on a set of rules.

Here is a basic example:
Let’s suppose your company has a web server inside its infrastructure. In order for the web server to be reachable from outside your company, some rules will have to be established to authorize web traffic to and from that server.
Some “ports” will be open, on a given IP address (the one of your server).
Your company can choose to allow web traffic only, or allow other traffic according to its needs.

Traditional Firewall – web traffic enabled

In our example, allowing web traffic only does not guarantee that this traffic is safe.
The web has enabled many possibilities and allowed easy access to resources and data. Unfortunately, web technologies are not completely safe by nature and threats are as numerous as opportunities. Traditional firewalls cannot analyze in details what is reaching the server.

By opening communication channels to web servers, the door is also open to new threats: application attacks.

Traditional Firewall – dangerous traffic coming in

The web traffic can embed many types of attacks: SQL injections, Cross Site Scripting, Cross Site Request Forgery, session hijacking attacks… hundreds of possible attacks.

This is where web application firewalls (WAF) have their role to play.
By analyzing web traffic, and with a smart detection engine, web application firewalls are able to distinguish dangerous from legitimate traffic and block attacks.

From a technical standpoint and referring to the OSI model (conceptual model describing communication system layers), traditional firewalls act on the three first layers (physical to network layers), and web application firewalls act on the seventh layer (application layer).

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
