CDNetworks’ Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a cloud-based solution that protects web applications from malicious web attacks. It supports built-in WAF rules as well as customized WAF rules, allowing customers to flexibly configure rules based on business needs. CDNetworks’ WAF solution patches security flaws before they can be exploited, eliminating vulnerabilities, protecting against different types of attacks, and reducing risk.
Relying on CDNetworks‘ globally distributed Points of Presence (PoPs), CDNetworks’ WAF solution is powered by a big data analysis platform that collects massive amounts of data and attack/defense samples daily in the cloud. This helps CDNetworks’ WAF solution provide protection against web application attacks covering OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, such as injections, directory traversal, XSS, and more.
” CDNetworks achieved strong regional growth of 41.6% in 2022. The company ranked fifth in the APAC cloud-based WAF solutions market in 2022, surpassing a few regional and global players that were ahead of it in 2021. “

Over 1,000 built-in WAF signatures are available to defend against the top threats published by OWASP, such as injections, directory traversal, XSS, and more.
Improved protection flexibility by creating customized rules and regular expression signatures through user-friendly rule wizards.
Offer multiple preset criteria for HTTP protocol validation that organizations can use to configure, detect, and block illegal HTTP requests based on various factors, including request method, version, and header size.
Block illegal users and potentially malicious traffic by IP address, HTTP headers, and other attributes to avoid web application attacks.
Reduce risks of brute-force and other automated attacks by configuring the number of HTTP requests that are allowed to your backend servers for any given time.
Offer organizations large quantities of third-party IP data to proactively blacklist potentially harmful IP addresses before any attack can take place.
Utilizing artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques to analyze end-user access logs, our WAF Intelligent Analysis Services intelligently identify legitimate user requests that have been accidentally blocked by WAF rules, and then automatically generate corresponding exceptions for the WAF rules. These intelligent analytic capabilities can effectively reduce the false positive rate while improving organizations operational efficiencies.
Protect applications against new threats using intelligent back-end monitoring that detects and blocks unwanted behaviors. If Zero Day vulnerabilities are discovered, CDNetworks’ WAF solution sends an “efficient patch” of WAF rules to the entire platform synchronously, forming a “Network-wide Synchronization” protection system that rapidly addresses Zero Day vulnerabilities.
CDNetworks offers multiple visualization tools, including a WAF dashboard, incident log, security information and event management (SIEM), and attack alarm. With these tools, you can stay informed about the security status of organization’s business and identify attack trends, targeted domains, attack distribution, attack request details, and more using our portal. Based on this information, organization can flexibly adjust its WAF rules to better protect your business.
CDNetworks’ WAF is a cloud-based solution that contains over 1,000 built-in WAF signatures. With these WAF signatures, custom rules, access control, rate limiting, threat intelligence and other features, CDNetworks’ WAF solution can monitor and block malicious requests from web attacks in real time.
Utilizing the artificial intelligence and machine learning technology, the solution automatically processes attack incidents offline and generates new defense strategies to reinforce the protection of your business. Additionally, our cloud-based WAF is deployed on edge nodes worldwide, allowing it to block attack requests near the attack source, further securing the entire defense infrastructure.
