Protect apps and APIs deployed across clouds and edge sites with industry-leading, SaaS-based web application firewall (WAF) and bot protection, advanced API security, and L3-L7 DDoS defense.
Protect against emerging threats
As apps evolve and API deployments increase, attack surface areas are increasing and bring greater risk.
Dramatically simpler operations
Reduce the number of point solutions and centralize security policy enforcement across distributed environments.
Best-in-class bot detection and WAF
Market-leading bot detection technology for highly accurate protection from malicious bots.
Protect the entirety of your apps
Selective coverage is no longer enough. Apps need protections for WAF, API security, DDoS, and bots.
Consistent security policies everywhere
Deploy consistent policies across your entire estate of apps regardless of where they’re hosted.
End-to-end observability
Gain valuable insights and telemetry across your distributed app infrastructure from a centralized user interface.

Mitigate web application attacks and vulnerabilities with comprehensive app security controls and uniform policy and observability, including simplified deployment and management of app security postures across environments and applications.
Provide enterprises with advanced bot defense and sophisticated security monitoring to eradicate bad traffic that targets user accounts, content scraping, and ad fraud.
Identify shadow APIs and mitigate API threats with zero-trust implementations for legacy and modern applications. Export Swagger files for API mapping and import these files to simplify security policy configurations.
Distributed Cloud WAAP protects apps against volumetric L3-L7 DDoS attacks at the network edge, ensuring that the app still has global availability without impact to legitimate customers. Distributed Cloud WAAP also provides visibility into both historically mitigated and active attacks so that proactive controls can be enabled to further thwart unwanted bad actors.
Vulnerabilities and misconfigurations at the infrastructure level leave apps open to attack from both internal and external bad actors. With Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection, get comprehensive visibility into these threats, with the context you need to remediate them.
Get protection against Magecart, formjacking, skimming, PII harvesting and other critical client-side security vulnerabilities. Distributed Cloud Client-Side Defense JavaScript monitors web pages for suspicious scripts and collects telemetry, which generates actionable alerts viewable in a dashboard with one-click mitigation.
