The document discusses three types of Web Application Firewalls (WAFs): network-based, host-based, and cloud-based. Network-based WAFs protect the entire network infrastructure by filtering traffic, host-based WAFs secure individual applications at the server level, and cloud-based WAFs offer scalability and adaptability to threats. The content also promotes free resources such as courses and workshops for further insights.

2. Network-based WAF
(A powerful shield for your organization!)
Network-based WAFs protect your entire
network infrastructure.
They filter traffic before it reaches your
web application, preventing
malicious requests and
traffic spikes.

3. Host-based WAF
(Tailor-made defense for your websites!)
Host-based WAFs operate directly on
your web server. They inspect and secure
traffic at the application level,
making them great for
individual app
protection.

4. Cloud-based WAF
(The modern guardian of your online presence!)
Cloud-based WAFs are hosted in the
cloud, offering scalability and easy
management. They analyze traffic
patterns and adapt to
evolving threats.
