What is Oracle Web Application Firewall?
Protect your applications from detrimental and unwelcome online activities with a cloud-based web application firewall solution that complies with PCI standards. By utilizing threat intelligence alongside consistent rule application, the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Web Application Firewall boosts security and safeguards internet-facing servers. Adopt an edge security methodology with a web application firewall that integrates threat data from multiple sources, including WebRoot BrightCloud®, and offers over 250 predefined rules designed for OWASP, specific applications, and compliance requirements. It is crucial to ensure that your applications—whether hosted on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, on-premises, or across multicloud environments—are defended with access limitations based on variables like geolocation, IP whitelisting and blacklisting, in addition to controls over HTTP URLs and headers. Furthermore, identify and mitigate harmful bot traffic with an advanced set of verification methods, incorporating JavaScript validations, CAPTCHA tests, device fingerprinting, and smart algorithms that differentiate between human interactions and automated actions. This all-encompassing strategy not only bolsters security but also instills confidence in organizations navigating the complexities of the digital landscape, as they can trust their systems are well-protected against evolving threats. Moreover, the proactive monitoring and adaptation of security measures ensure that businesses remain resilient in the face of emerging cyber risks.
