DDoS protection
I use to propose F5 WAF to protect applications and APIs, because nowadays there are many applications which have open source code or third code that make then more vulnerable and for the fact that there are many types of attacks like SQLi, XXS, DDoS, bad bots attacks, client side attack and many more.
- prevent SQLi attacks
- API Security
- Bots attack protection
- Client-side protection
- DDoS Protection
- RASP
- scalability
- agnostic
- stronger security
- the applications are always on
- business continuity
because its integration are very well, making a stronger solutions to cover many more attacks.

We've been using F5's WAF for many years in our organization. We utilize it for all external facing applications, our ecommerce platform as well as some internal applications. Through some fine tweaking we've made our environment highly scalable, resilient and secure. By far one of the best investments the enterprise has made and we plan on keeping these devices running for many years to come.
- application filtering
- application firewalling
- Easier interface to configure rules and policies
- all of them
- Detects and prevents breaches in our environment
F5 APM beats them all, hands down for internally hosted applications.
