Application security protects websites, web applications and APIs against attacks, overload and abuse – with a web application firewall, DDoS protection plus bot and API management from a single cloud-native platform.
Websites, web applications and APIs are reachable directly from the internet – and therefore under constant fire: automated attacks, overload attacks, botnets and the abuse of interfaces keep increasing. On-premises protection falls short here, because an attack often reaches the server before it can be filtered.
Application security moves protection upstream into a global cloud: malicious traffic is intercepted before it ever reaches the application – close to the attacker, automatically and with virtually unlimited scale. KAEMI plans, implements and operates this protection aligned to your requirements.
GET IN TOUCHAll Cloudflare products for application security at a glanceThe WAF inspects traffic to web applications and blocks typical attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting and the rest of the OWASP Top 10. Preconfigured rule sets are updated continuously and can be extended with custom rules for the respective application.
Volumetric and application-level overload attacks are mitigated automatically and always-on – via a global network with enormous capacity. Applications remain reachable for legitimate users even during an attack.
Malicious bots – used for credential stuffing, scraping or fraud, for example – are identified by their behaviour and blocked, while legitimate bots such as search engine crawlers remain unhindered.
APIs are discovered automatically, validated against their schema and protected against abuse. Authentication and access limits secure interfaces that are increasingly becoming the preferred attack path.
Too many requests from a single source are throttled or blocked – effective protection against brute-force logins, credential stuffing and the automated abuse of login and form pages.
Embedded third-party scripts are monitored continuously to detect supply chain and skimming attacks, in which malicious code captures sensitive input such as payment data directly in the browser.
All traffic is encrypted – with automatically issued and managed certificates, end-to-end HTTPS and modern TLS standards. Time-consuming certificate management is no longer necessary.
Requests are distributed intelligently across multiple servers and locations. Health checks detect outages automatically and reroute traffic – for high availability, even during load peaks or disruptions.
Content is delivered close to the user via a global edge network. This relieves the origin server, speeds up load times noticeably and increases resilience against load peaks.
Application security protects websites, web applications and APIs against attacks, overload and abuse. It includes a web application firewall (WAF), DDoS protection as well as bot management and API protection. Rate limiting, client-side security and SSL/TLS encryption complete the protection. Your digital applications stay reachable, trustworthy and reliably secured.
A web application firewall (WAF) inspects the traffic to your application and filters out malicious requests before they reach the application. Together with DDoS protection, bot management and rate limiting, it fends off overload attacks and automated abuse while legitimate users and APIs continue to be served reliably.
Application security keeps your applications not only secure but also available and fast. DDoS protection and load balancing with failover absorb overload and outages, while CDN and caching deliver content closer to the user. You combine protection against attacks with stable reachability and short load times.
The web application firewall filters malicious requests at the application level, DDoS protection fends off targeted overload attacks, and API protection secures your interfaces against abuse. Complemented by bot management, rate limiting and client-side security, these building blocks interlock and cover different attack paths to your applications.
KAEMI plans, implements and operates your application security as a managed service and as a Cloudflare partner. We set up WAF, DDoS protection, bot management and API protection as well as SSL/TLS encryption around your requirements and monitor operation. You get end-to-end protection without having to build and maintain security infrastructure yourself.
Application security suits every organisation that runs websites, web applications or APIs and wants to protect them against attacks, overload and abuse. Companies with business-critical online services that depend on reliable availability benefit in particular – for example through DDoS protection, load balancing and failover as well as CDN and caching.
