Protect Your Web Applications, APIs, and Data Against Every Cyber Threat in Any Location
CyberSift WebProtect offers businesses a full-featured, self-managed Web Application Firewall (WAF) that protects your applications, APIs, and data against the most common vulnerabilities. It protects against the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, including newly discovered software flaws, web exploits, malicious campaigns, application hijacking, targeted attacks, automated programs, and advanced threats. Deployable wherever your apps are found - across multi-cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments in various form factors (containers, virtual machines, chassis, blades, or appliances), WebProtect furnishes a resilient set of advanced defenses. At the same time, it empowers security mechanization for Development Operations and Application Development.
Why CyberSift WebProtect?
CyberSift WebProtect enables fast deployment and easy configuration allowing organizations to quickly become compliant and secure for immediate benefits.
​
Release your applications faster with improved security efficiency and a lower cost.
Fast deployment & easy to use
Quick and simple deployment with installation on-premise, in your cloud, or offered as a hosted service. It can even perform security configuration directly from the dashboard. A simple step-by-step guided configuration helps you create application security use cases that match your exact organizational needs.
Complete security
Improved security posture and secured apps help you protect against the most common types of attack while streamlining application security. Higher security efficacy via fine‑grained controls helps you independently manage security policies for microservices.
Lower costs &
higher efficiency
Bring apps to market faster with lower cost and improved security efficiency. Integrate security as code within apps currently in development to enhance automation and save time. WebProtect helps DevOps and SecOps bridge operational gaps.
Compliance with industry regulations
WebProtect complies with government and industry regulations to meet privacy and security requirements based on your local region’s applicable standards and regulations.
How CyberSift WebProtect Works
Protects your web applications, APIs, and data seamlessly in the cloud, on-prem, or offered as a hosted service.
A Comprehensive Security for Your Web Apps
CyberSift WebProtect works by analyzing the traffic between the client and server to block any traffic that looks suspicious or potentially harmful. It examines incoming requests and compares them against a set of predefined rules that the user can customize.
​
These rules typically include a list of known attack patterns, such as SQL injection attempts or attempts to exploit known vulnerabilities in common web application platforms. Our WebProtect also monitors traffic for any unusual behavior or traffic patterns, such as an excessive number of requests from a single IP address or requests with malformed parameters.
​
Whenever CyberSift WebProtect detects suspicious traffic, it can take several actions depending on the user’s preference, such as blocking the traffic entirely, or flagging it for review by a security analyst.
Key Capabilities
CyberSift WebProtect’s sophisticated WAF technology safeguards your web applications by blending signature and resilient behavior-based protection. This solution examines application requests and responses to impede and mitigate various perils originating from OWASP Top 10, layer 7 DDoS attacks, zero-day attacks, threat campaigns, bots, and much more.
Protection against today’s biggest web security concerns
Defends critical apps against OWASP top 10 vulnerabilities, SQL/PHP injection, attacks targeting known CVEs and zero-day attacks. It also offers login credential exploit protection, app-layer denial of service (DoS) protection, defense against targeted threat campaigns (with an add-on subscription), proactive bot defense, and fine-grained controls for API security.
API validation and enforcement
WebProtect deploys tools that secure REST/JSON, XML, and GWT APIs. It can also deploy and configure security measures using declarative APIs allowing for the implementation of security as code.
In-browser data encryption and stolen credential protection
To protect against data-extracting malware and man-in-the-browser attacks, it encrypts data at the app layer. This also protects apps against brute-force attacks.
Advanced application protection and behavioral DoS
Advanced WAF combines machine learning, threat intelligence, and deep application expertise to monitor and score client interactions. It deciphers intent based on the number of WAF rules hit, forbidden access attempts, login failures, error rates, and more, to help identify an app’s highest priority threats. Behavioral analytics and machine learning also provides highly accurate L7 DoS detection and mitigation.
Powerful service policy engine and AI checks
By utilizing IP reputation and allow/deny lists, WAF enables micro-segmentation and advanced security at the application layer. It blocks clients with known bad TLS fingerprints, ASNs from suspicious countries, and more.
Optional SOC monitoring
With a team of trained security analysts who use advanced threat intelligence and machine learning to monitor your web applications, our WAF adds an extra layer of protection beyond a traditional WAF. Our team provides human expertise for investigating and mitigating any suspicious activity, along with detailed reports to address security risks. This comprehensive security solution gives you peace of mind against sophisticated cyber attacks.
Simple set-up and management
Deploy through a simple UI or automate via APIs including best-practice default protections and the flexibility to create custom rules.
Multi-app dashboards for easy admin
WebProtect offers a full overview from a single dashboard with a 360-degree view of app performance and security events across distributed applications. The dashboard provides a security score relative to deployed policies that addresses the OWASP Top 10. This enables your security administrators to view each policy's coverage status and improve protections, if necessary.
3 Ways to Deploy
CyberSift WebProtect provides self-service or managed options to offer security anywhere. It covers applications across public/private clouds, on-premises data centers, and edge sites, all with centralized visibility and management.
