The main use cases for Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF) are to protect organizations from attacks by bad actors and hackers. We have a process for this, where we first whitelist employees and third-party clusters to prevent attacks. Then, we divide WAF into three main sections: WAF Protect score, WAF score, and threat score. We also make adjustments based on the specific needs of each organization. These are the general steps at a high level. Cloudflare WAF is a comprehensive system with many aspects and in-depth documentation that can be tailored to specific client requirements. The use cases vary depending on the client, whether they are retail or banking sectors, as each has different needs and requirements. We maintain the WAF configurations based on these specific needs.

As a senior enterprise architect, I work on solution developments using Cloudflare Web Application Firewall, and the other teams of our organization, such as the administration team, perform the daily or BAU activities. The solution's WAF use case provides protection against DDoS and data injection activities. Cloudflare Web Application Firewall is also utilized for internet-connected applications. One of our organization's customers leverages the solution with the SASE platform for zero-trust security.

We have multiple customers using the solution for a WAF. It's also a firewall. Unlike others, where you have to purchase multiple solutions, Cloudflare has everything under one solution. It handles load balancing, CDN, order routing, DDoS protection, and more under one solution.
