About Web Application and API Protection
Akamai’s Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) is an integrated security solution designed to protect web applications, website servers, and APIs from various cyber threats. WAAP combines multiple layers of protection, including a Web Application Firewall (WAF), to safeguard applications and APIs from attacks like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and Denial-of-Service (DoS).
With WAAP, Akamai provides adaptive protection that is continuously updated to address evolving threats. This includes the ability to monitor and block malicious traffic in real-time, delivering comprehensive protection against commonly exploited application vulnerabilities.
Additionally, WAAP offers Advanced API Discovery, which helps identify undocumented or vulnerable APIs, as well as deep visibility features to manage and mitigate attacks more efficiently.
