F5’s WAF solution leverages behavioral analytics, proactive bot defense, and application-layer encryption to protect users, web applications, and APIs from modern threats, including OWASP Top 10, malware, and credential-based attacks, among other security concerns.

“Competitive and comparative analyst reports continue to highlight the strength of F5’s WAF solutions,” said Brian McHenry, VP, Product Management, Security at F5. “Specifically, the KuppingerCole report calls out bot management, API protection, and support for DevOps workflows as examples of F5’s WAF market leadership.”
