A varying depth of security is possible for every module.

The core features of Cloud WAAP are bot mitigation, WAF, API protection, and protection against DDoS. A web application may also include application programming interfaces (APIs), which provide programmatic access to the application’s capabilities.Īdam Hils and Jeremy D’Hoinne of Gartner coined the name Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) in reference to cloud-based services created to safeguard vulnerable APIs and web applications.Ĭloud WAAP services provide various security modules, based on an auto-scaling, multitenant cloud infrastructure. Web applications are programs that users can access via a web browser, and are a critical component of many organizations’ web presence. Stop malicious and anomalous high-volume web requests, reduce web server and API utilization, and let legitimate traffic through to application and API endpoints with our advanced rate limiting features.What is Web Application and API Protection (WAAP)? When defined traffic thresholds for key application functions are met we automatically block the abusive traffic. Prevent malicious automated traffic that aims to overwhelm or abuse your apps so they are unavailable. Prevent bad bots from performing malicious actions against your websites and APIs by identifying and mitigating them before they can negatively impact your bottom line or your user experience.

Stop API abuse by monitoring for unexpected values and parameters submitted by endpoints and blocking unauthorized requests.
