Managed Web Application Firewall (WAF)
Help protect your websites, applications, and APIs from common application-layer attacks with a managed WAF that sits in front of your servers and filters suspicious requests before they reach your backend.
WAF Features
An additional protection layer for web applications and APIs, configured and managed by our team.
Layer 7 Application Protection
Filter and inspect HTTP/HTTPS requests before they reach your application, helping reduce exploitation attempts and application-targeted attacks.
Protection from Common Attacks
Rules that help defend against common patterns such as SQL Injection and Cross-Site Scripting, along with abuse of paths, headers, and query strings.
Rate Limiting
Limit excessive or abnormal requests to help protect applications from illegitimate load and abuse attempts.
Bot & Bad Traffic Filtering
Reduce automated bot traffic and unwanted requests that may affect performance or attempt to probe for vulnerabilities.
Custom Per-Application Rules
Set tailored rules based on domain, path, application type, IP, country, or request pattern to match your needs.
Security Monitoring & Logs
Logs of blocked or suspicious requests help your technical team understand attack sources and refine the rules over time.
Setup & Management by SkyMatrix
Our team reviews the application, tunes the rules, tests the service, and monitors impact to reduce false blocks and keep the service stable.
Why do you need a WAF?
Web applications and APIs have become direct targets for attacks, especially systems with logins, input forms, dashboards, or sensitive data. Placing a WAF in front of your application helps add a practical protection layer without requiring fundamental changes to the application itself.
