Compare A10 Defend Threat Control vs. Tencent Cloud Web Application Firewall

A10 Defend Threat Control is a SaaS component within the A10 suite. It offers a DDoS attack map in real-time and a proactive, detailed list DDoS weapons. A10 Defend Threat control is unlike other tools that are available today, which provide convenience but at the expense of false positives or false negatives. It provides insights into attackers and victims, analytics and vectors, trends and other characteristics. This helps organizations establish a stronger security posture by providing actionable insights that block malicious IPs who can launch DDoS attacks.

The recognition of web attacks utilizes a combination of AI and predefined rules, ensuring robust anti-bypass capabilities and maintaining low rates of both false negatives and false positives. This system effectively protects against prevalent web threats, such as those listed in the OWASP top 10, which encompasses issues like SQL injection, unauthorized access, cross-site scripting, and cross-site request forgery, among others. Additionally, users have the option to store essential web content in the cloud, enabling the publication of cached web pages that serve as backups to mitigate the risks associated with web page alterations. The backend infrastructure is safeguarded through a comprehensive strategy that includes concealing servers and applications before an attack occurs, preventing attacks during ongoing incidents, and replacing or concealing sensitive data after an event. Furthermore, the Web Application Firewall (WAF) conducts extensive DNS verification across the nation for the domains provided by customers, allowing it to identify and report any hijacking attempts affecting the protected domain names in different areas, which is crucial for preventing data breaches and financial losses linked to user hijacking on websites. This multifaceted approach not only fortifies security but also enhances user trust in web services.
