Web Application Firewall
Web Application Firewall for protect your website from hacking
A web application firewall (WAF) is an application firewall for HTTP applications. It applies a set of rules to an HTTP conversation. Generally, these rules cover common attacks such as cross-site scripting (XSS) and SQL injection. A Web application firewall (WAF) is a firewall that monitors, filters or blocks the HTTP traffic to and from a Web application. A WAF protects a Web application by controlling its input and output and the access to and from the application

Our web application firewall – Website Firewall is designed to filter traffic before it reaches your WordPress or Joomla website. The majority of malicious website attacks are therefore blocked which increases website security dramatically.
Website Firewall
Traditional Firewalls or Web Application Firewalls?
Traditional firewalls protect IT environments against external attacks, by allowing and blocking connections to certain areas.
These firewalls control incoming and outgoing network traffic, based on a set of rules.
Here is a basic example:
Let’s suppose your company has a web server inside its infrastructure. In order for the web server to be reachable from outside your company, some rules will have to be established to authorize web traffic to and from that server.
Some “ports” will be open, on a given IP address (the one of your server).
Your company can choose to allow web traffic only, or allow other traffic according to its needs.
Traditional Firewall – web traffic enabled
In our example, allowing web traffic only does not guarantee that this traffic is safe.
The web has enabled many possibilities and allowed easy access to resources and data. Unfortunately, web technologies are not completely safe by nature and threats are as numerous as opportunities. Traditional firewalls cannot analyze in details what is reaching the server.
By opening communication channels to web servers, the door is also open to new threats: application attacks.
Traditional Firewall – dangerous traffic coming in
The web traffic can embed many types of attacks: SQL injections, Cross Site Scripting, Cross Site Request Forgery, session hijacking attacks… hundreds of possible attacks.
This is where web application firewalls (WAF) have their role to play.
By analyzing web traffic, and with a smart detection engine, web application firewalls are able to distinguish dangerous from legitimate traffic and block attacks.
Web Application Firewall blocking dangerous traffic
From a technical standpoint and referring to the OSI model (conceptual model describing communication system layers), traditional firewalls act on the three first layers (physical to network layers), and web application firewalls act on the seventh layer (application layer).
