About Fastly Next-Gen WAF
The Fastly Next-Gen WAF provides advanced protection for your applications, APIs, and microservices, wherever they live, from a single unified solution. Reporting and alerting feedback loops provide Layer 7 visibility across your entire app and API footprint. Integrations with your DevOps and security toolchains encourage the sharing and correlation of data and help simplify automation, both decreasing security risks and speeding up CI/CD. Our Next-Gen WAF uses SmartParse, a highly accurate detection method, to evaluate the context of each request and how it would execute, to determine if there are malicious or anomalous payloads in requests. SmartParse enables near-zero tuning and the ability to start detecting threats immediately. Block account takeover (ATO) attacks by inspecting web requests and correlating anomalous activity with malicious intent.
