Fortinet FortiWeb: A full-featured Web Application Firewall

Web applications and APIs have emerged as the go-to tools for developing mission-critical applications, and those applications must keep up with the demands of the business. FortiWeb provides performance, manageability, and protection required to safeguard these modern web applications. FortiWeb, Fortinet’s Web Application Firewall, safeguards your mission-critical web applications against known and unknown vulnerabilities. The attack surface of your web applications changes quickly as you add new features, update existing ones, or expose new web APIs.

Organizations embark on new digital initiatives and broaden the attack surface to enable business, they frequently discover that new web applications and application programming interfaces (APIs) are exposed to dangerous traffic as a result of web server vulnerabilities, a server plugin, or other issues. A web application firewall (WAF) is one of the tools in charge of protecting business-critical web applications.

When you deploy a new Internet-facing application, your attack surface changes. You require a solution that can protect any web-based application you deploy, including short-lived and long–lived applications. With FortiWeb Cloud WAF as a Service, you can rapidly roll out your applications without managing or maintaining your infrastructure

Here are the features of FortiWeb, Fortinet’s Web Application Firewall as follows:

  1. Web application and API protection that has been proven: FortiWeb defends mission-critical web applications and APIs against all OWASP Top-10 threats, DDOS attacks, malicious BOT ATTACKS, and more.
  2. Threat detection using machine learning: FortiWeb employs machine learning (ML) to protect against zero-day attacks and reduce false positives in addition to regular signature updates and numerous other layers of defense.
  3. Integration of the security fabric: Integration with FortiGate firewalls and FortiSandbox provides advanced persistent threat protection.
  4. Visual analytics: FortiWeb’s visual reporting tools provide detailed analyses of attack sources, types, and other elements, providing insights that other WAF solutions do not provide.
  5. Tools for Reducing False Positives: Advanced tools that reduce the amount of time spent managing policies and exception lists daily, ensuring that only unwanted traffic is blocked.
  6. Acceleration based on hardware: FortiWeb provides industry-leading protected WAF throughputs as well as lightning-quick secure traffic encryption/decryption.
