AWS Waf Service
AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF)
AWS WAF (Web Application Firewall) is a fully managed security service from Amazon Web Services that protects web applications and APIs by monitoring, filtering, and controlling incoming HTTP/HTTPS traffic.It works by applying customizable security rules (called Web ACLs) that inspect each request based on conditions like IP address, headers, query strings, and request patterns. Based on these rules, AWS WAF can allow, block, or count requests in real time.
AWS WAF is specifically designed to defend against common web threats such as:
- SQL Injection (SQLi)
- Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
- Bot traffic and scraping
- Application-layer DDoS attacks
It integrates seamlessly with services like Amazon CloudFront, Application Load Balancer, API Gateway, and AppSync, enabling centralized protection across multiple applications while automatically scaling with traffic.
