Web Application Firewall (WAF)

Protect your web applications from common exploits and malicious traffic with Medianova’s Web Application Firewall (WAF).

WAF is Medianova’s intelligent web security layer that protects your applications from malicious traffic, bots, and exploits. With real-time filtering, custom rule control, and built-in analytics, it helps you prevent attacks before they reach your origin servers.

Why Choose WAF?

Medianova WAF combines ease of use, robust protection, and edge-level performance to keep your web applications secure. Unlike standard firewalls, WAF protects against both network and application-layer attacks.

• Edge-level protection – All traffic is filtered at Medianova’s global CDN edge before it reaches your origin.

• Managed Rules – Constantly updated rulesets by Medianova’s Security Team, including OWASP Top 10 protections.

• Custom Rules – Define your own rules to block, allow, or log specific requests.

• Real-time defense – Detect and mitigate attacks instantly without affecting legitimate traffic.

• Actionable analytics – Gain visibility into threats, attack sources, and triggered rules through the Control Panel.

Key Features

• OWASP Top 10 Protection – Shields against SQL Injection, XSS, and other common web vulnerabilities.

• Custom Rule Engine – Create granular policies based on IP, URI, headers, or user agents.

• Monitoring Mode – Observe how rules behave before full activation.

• Instant Mitigation – Block or log attacks in real time with no latency impact.

• Integrated Analytics – Visual dashboards for traffic and threat insights.

• False Positive Control – Fine-tune rules to balance protection and accessibility.
