Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) is a converged security solution, with a Web Application Firewall at its core, which integrates essential tools such as API security, bot management, and DDoS mitigation into a unified platform. This cohesive approach ensures comprehensive protection while reducing security gaps and simplifying management. As online risks continue to increase, implementing WAAP enables businesses to adapt to new threats while enhancing their overall security strategy.
