WAF
A web application firewall (WAF) provides web security for online services from malicious security attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS). WAF security detects and filters out threats which could degrade, compromise, or expose online applications to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. WAF security examines HTTP traffic before it reaches the application server. They also protect against unauthorized transfer of data from the server.

Attacks That WAFs Prevent

-WAF security can prevent many attacks, including:
Cross-site Scripting (XSS) — Attackers inject client-side scripts into web pages viewed by other users.
-SQL injection — Malicious code is inserted or injected into an web entry field that allows attackers to compromise the application and underlying systems.
-Cookie poisoning — Modification of a cookie to gain unauthorized information about the user for purposes such as identity theft.
-Unvalidated input — Attackers tamper with HTTP request (including the url, headers and form fields) to bypass the site’s security mechanisms.
-Layer 7 DoS — An HTTP flood attack that utilizes valid requests in typical URL data retrievals.
-Web scraping — Data scraping used for extracting data from websites.
