AIWAF, the Web Application Firewall from MONITORAPP, is designed to combat the growing number of web-based security threats. With most security breaches occurring online, having a robust web firewall is vital for protection against various types of attacks. AIWAF provides strong defense mechanisms tailored specifically to counteract these web threats. In today's digital landscape, web security is not just an option but a necessity due to the inherent vulnerabilities of the internet. The nature of HTTP/HTTPS traffic means these ports must remain accessible to users, which unfortunately also opens up avenues for potential attacks. AIWAF focuses on detecting hacking attempts by analyzing traffic patterns and managing server access effectively. As cyber threats continue to evolve, generating malicious traffic or manipulating request data, it is crucial for a WAF to adapt continuously to new attack methods. MONITORAPP’s AIWAF stands out by utilizing patented adaptive profiling technology combined with a comprehensive threat intelligence system, ensuring effective blocking of web attacks. This makes AIWAF an essential tool for organizations looking to safeguard their online presence against ever-changing security threats.
