Application security

How CybrWAF inspects traffic, controls automated abuse and keeps APIs held to what they are meant to accept.

The problem

Web applications and APIs are reachable by design. Attacks arrive as ordinary-looking requests, automated abuse looks like demand, and new vulnerabilities are public before an application release can fix them.

APIs add a second problem: they multiply quietly. Teams protect the endpoints they know about while others go unmanaged.

How Neonix approaches it

  1. 01

    Inspect every request

    CybrWAF terminates TLS and inspects requests against application risk, including the OWASP class of attacks, at the point where internet traffic reaches the application.

  2. 02

    Control automated abuse

    Bot management, rate limiting, IP reputation, geo controls and Layer 7 DDoS protection handle automated traffic before it reaches the application or the API.

  3. 03

    Hold APIs to their contract

    API discovery finds what exists, and schema enforcement holds traffic to what each API is supposed to accept.

  4. 04

    Close gaps without waiting

    Virtual patching and custom rules put protection in place ahead of an application release, and threat intelligence integration turns new risk signals into policy.

What CybrWAF covers

  • Web application firewall
  • OWASP protection
  • TLS termination
  • Layer 7 DDoS
  • Bot management
  • Rate limiting
  • IP reputation
  • Geo controls
  • API security and discovery
  • API schema enforcement
  • Custom rules
  • Virtual patching
  • Threat intelligence integration

How it connects

Traffic and attack signals join exposure and identity context in the Neonix Security Fabric. Cybrmonk shows which applications are reachable from outside, and CybrWAF controls how that reachability can be used.

Security events can be forwarded to SIEM platforms through the live integrations, and findings can open tickets in ITSM tools.

Where to start

  • Place CybrWAF in front of the application that matters most to the business.
  • Run API discovery early, since unmanaged endpoints are where the surprises are.
  • Agree which rules block outright and which only alert, then tighten over time.
