Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Dyn Web Application Security Platform

Our organization uses Oracle Dyn Web Application Security Platform as a critical technology partner to provide DDoS and WAF protection for our hosting, cloud, and colocation customers. We tested this service against leading competitors and their analytic tools, portal functionality, and ease of working with their technical team have been invaluable.

Pros

  • Analytical data on application threats, attack vectors, and data throughput.
  • Ease of use for uploading SSL certs and portal UI in general.
  • Simple to use and implement WAF preset rule sets for compliance.

Cons

  • Integration with ADC analytics for a full 360 visibility of traffic and data.
  • Still growing through their acquisition into Oracle Dyn and while the continued process maturity is great, it is worth noting.
  • Their Express option was pulled from production too quickly and caused a lot of business disruption.
The complexity of implementation is a challenge for ALL WAFs. So work towards simplifying this would be welcomed.
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.
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.
