    Chose Oracle Dyn WAF
    I already put this in earlier, but to repeat - they were easier to work with, more technically capable and knowledgeable and not just trying to sell us on something. Their willingness to solve for our problems and work with us made them the clear winner.

    I recommend it as a WAF, but not as a CDN. There are better CDNs, in my case I use transparentCDN (now www.transparentedge.eu) and Edgecast (now Verizon CDN).

    Their technical team is great, their portal is easily the best of those I have reviewed it against (including Akamai, CloudFlare, and Imperva), and they are a dedicated technology partner through and through.

    • Pre-populated rulesets - This allows engineers to quickly spin up new WAF instances without the need to configure extensive rulesets.
    • Detailed audit logs - Logs show detailed information about traffic hitting the WAF as well as information the rules allowing or blocking the traffic.
    • Change Management - Changes can be staged and applied when necessary, without interfering with current traffic.

    Cons
    Imperva, a Thales company
    • CDN functionalities are secondary and cannot be compared to a top-level CDN.
    • The WebGUI interface of the dashboard is very improvable. They have been changing the UX for years and it is disjointed and with services that have not yet been migrated.
    • The analysis of WAF attack logs is insufficient. It is difficult to analyze attacks of past hours, event filters are missing. It is complicated to analyze the chronology of an attack.
    • There are extra modules to improve the attack logs analysis but they are expensive and add little.

    • The purchase of Oracle Dyn into Oracle Dyn continues to develop the company, and while the process maturity is wonderful, it is worth mentioning.
    • Many businesses were affected when their Express option was yanked from production too rapidly, resulting in significant costs and delays.
    • Full 360-degree traffic and data visibility with ADC analytics integration.

    After several years involved with the issue of cyber security and having been very close with distributed denial of service attacks, having used several companies to protect our applications, I decided to opt for Oracle Dyn Web Application Security Platform. Definitely, Oracle Dyn gives my organization the protection we need for our critical applications, far away from the other companies that offer similar services.

    • It's an expensive product if you have a lot of traffic volume, but I feel confident with their WAF.
