Find out in this report how the two Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
Akamai App & API Protector brings together web application firewall, bot mitigation, API security, and Layer 7 DDoS protection into a single solution. It quickly identifies vulnerabilities and mitigates threats across your entire web and API estates — even for the most complex distributed architectures. Recognized as the leading attack detection solution on the market, App & API Protector is easy to implement and use. It delivers automatic updates for security protections and provides holistic visibility into traffic and attacks.
Only NetScaler uses a one-pass architecture for traffic processing that enables it to perform web application firewall (WAF) inspection in a single pass. This significantly reduces the latency of each request for optimal application performance. And because advanced WAF capabilities come built in with NetScaler, there’s no need to purchase a separate WAF solution.
For the most comprehensive protection from OWASP Top 10 attacks to zero-day exploits, NetScaler WAF employs a hybrid security model that incorporates policies, profiles, and signatures to protect against known and unknown web application attacks.
To save you time, NetScaler WAF uses automated learning, called dynamic profiling, to understand how a protected application works. By using a repetitive-pattern filter, NetScaler WAF adapts to the application even as developers continue to develop and deploy it, so it is always protected.
We monitor all Web Application Firewall (WAF) reviews to prevent fraudulent reviews and keep review quality high. We do not post reviews by company employees or direct competitors. We validate each review for authenticity via cross-reference with LinkedIn, and personal follow-up with the reviewer when necessary.
