WAF Firstly Released in China by NSFOCUS
 

In recent years, Web application security problems faced by the government and enterprises become more and more complicated. The security threat is growing. Especially the hybrid threats such as hacker attack, worm and virus, DDoS attack, SQL injection, and Web application vulnerability exploitation, are harassing users overwhelmingly. Great damage has been done on information networks and core services. Internal maintainers can only be busy remedying Web application vulnerabilities, while traditional firewalls, limited by their detection mechanism and prevention ability, can hardly solve existing Web application problems.

Web Application Firewall (WAF), a new product of the international security industry, is used to solve security problems occurring on the Web application layer. Currently, WAF has its functional definition in the international market, but lacks consideration on special Chinese needs.

Based on the long term research of Web attack prevention technique, NSFOCUS brought forward the ICEYE WAF on January 8, 2008. This product is designed to correctly detect and recognize all kinds of Web application attack traffics and then block them in real time, mitigate DDoS attacks on Web application, and scan Web application vulnerabilities to improve self security of Web application.

As a new generation of security products that has independent intellectual property and is released firstly by NSFOCUS in China, ICEYE WAF, fully considering the current status of national Web application security, is devoted to solve complicated Web application security problems and derived maintenance and management problems facing our government and enterprises. In the advanced system structure, ICEYE WAF integrates the advanced Web scanning technique, and constitutes an engine that takes signature detection, protocol anomaly detection, DDoS detection and association analysis as the core on the basis of in-depth protocol analysis technique.

ICEYE WAF has both passive defense function and active scanning function, applying to government, business, and enterprise websites, and IDCs. It is a brand-new, comprehensive Web application security solution. Its release provides professional security devices for the application prevention of many Internet websites. The price of this product is also favorable for small and medium Internet enterprises.

WAF products have never been marketed nationally before. After releasing the anti-DDoS system and Intrusion Protection System for the first time in China, NSFOCUS is again the first enterprise who releases WAF products in China. This opens a new window in the national security product market and reveals the deep security research basis and powerful product research capability of NSFOCUS.
