**What do you like best about Oracle Web Application Firewall (WAF)?**

It's best in AI based threat modelling. In some firewall we have to write rule set. but here based on AI this tool suggest what are the ruleset to define. This tool have additional features of integration with the API Gateway to monitor traffic on the gateway as it's added feature to keep it as a reverse proxy also

**What do you dislike about Oracle Web Application Firewall (WAF)?**

Little buggy but as it's in construction phase. Should be ok in some months hopefully

**What problems is Oracle Web Application Firewall (WAF) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

One good I saw is it's auto suggesting rule set based on traffic. If DDoS hits are high and all failed traffics have a common pattern. So this tool suggesting the ruleset which is protecting from those attacks and what additional ruleset required to mitigate the problem if a new modified pattern of this type tried from the attackers. In addition if any of the API is Mis configured or access not revoked or any ruleset disabled for that service and there is an access from a end user. We can get an alert from it
