Evolution of WAF and Why It Matters Today

| ABSTRACT

Gartner estimates that by 2023 more than 30% of public-facing web applications will be protected by cloud web application and API protection (WAAP) services, which combine DDoS protection, bot mitigation, API protection, and web application firewalls (WAFs). But organizations continue to struggle with tuning their rule sets, false positives that negatively affect business transactions, and the rapid pace of change in the actual web applications they aim to protect.
This presentation will showcase the evolution of WAF, why WAFs matter for maintaining a strong defensive security posture and how Akamai approaches these challenges.
