"Strong Threat Protection with Easy Log Monitoring and Centralized Management"

4.5/5

What do you like best about AWS WAF?

It protects against threats and hackers, and it lets us manage internet traffic according to our organization’s policy. It’s also easy to monitor the logs. There’s a large community and well-maintained documentation, plus support for centralized management. Customer support has been good as well. It provides a rich feature set for targeted protection, the ability to configure Web ACLs, and managing rule sets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS WAF?

None, since the tool does deliver on the capabilities and features described in their whitepapers. That said, the pricing model is opaque, and we’ve been caught off guard by scaling costs before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS WAF solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have experience working with AWS WAF to protect web applications from common web exploits and to secure APIs against threats such as SQL injection, XSS, and bot traffic. I configured custom rules and integrated WAF with CloudFront and an Application Load Balancer to manage and control incoming traffic effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
