AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF)
Cybersecurity
AWS WAF is a web application firewall that protects web applications and APIs from common exploits like SQL injection and cross-site scripting by letting users define customizable rules to filter incoming traffic. Security and DevOps engineers deploy it in front of resources like CloudFront, Application Load Balancer, or API Gateway to block malicious requests and mitigate bot traffic. It integrates with AWS Shield for additional DDoS protection.
