Web Application & API Protection (WAAP)

WAAP is a cloud-native, hybrid SaaS solution that delivers comprehensive protection for web applications and APIs. It combines traffic analysis and blocking with cloud-powered analytics to secure against OWASP Top 10 and advanced threats.

Features

• Deep packet inspection and protocol support for REST, SOAP, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, and more
• Protection against OWASP Top 10 web application risks, account takeover, malicious bots, and L7 DDoS
• Virtual patching to mitigate zero-day vulnerabilities in real time
• Credential stuffing and brute force attack detection through behavior-based analysis
• Geolocation-based blocking of unwanted traffic sources
• Distributed rate limiting to prevent automated attacks from overwhelming services
• Custom detectors and filters for forced browsing, BOLA, and malicious IP feeds
• High accuracy blocking with near-zero false positives
• Hybrid deployment model with filtering nodes in-line or out-of-band and cloud analytics

Capabilities

• Comprehensive runtime visibility into both web application and API traffic
• Real-time detection and blocking of advanced threats and zero-day exploits
• Automatic discovery of API endpoints and drift monitoring for changes or undocumented interfaces
• Integrated incident response and remediation workflows with DevOps toolchain integration
• Flexible policy configuration, allowing seamless switching between monitoring and blocking modes
• Support for multi-cloud, cloud-native, edge, and on-premise environments
• Reporting and analytics via cloud-hosted backend, including threat intelligence and event data

Benefits

• Rapid deployment—filtering nodes install in minutes across environments
• Unified protection for web apps and APIs, avoiding security silos
• Proactive risk reduction via virtual patching and OWASP threat coverage
• Reduced noise and operational burden due to high accuracy and low false positives
• Regulatory compliance through geo-blocking, PII protection, and audit-ready logs
• Scalable protection across thousands of workloads with distributed rate limiting
• Enhanced threat intelligence via cloud analytics and continuous updates
