What is the difference between Azure Application Gateway and WAF?

Azure Front Door WAF and Azure App Gateway WAF are very similar in functionality, one of the main differences is where the WAF is applied. Azure Front Door applies the WAF filters at edge locations, way before it gets to the datacenter. App Gateway applies the filter when it enters your VNET via the App Gateway.

How do I enable WAF on Application Gateway Azure?

First, create a basic WAF policy with a managed Default Rule Set (DRS) using the Azure portal. On the upper left side of the portal, select Create a resource. Search for WAF, select Web Application Firewall, then select Create. Type a unique name for your WAF policy.

How do I add WAF to Application Gateway?

Application gateway name: Enter myAppGateway for the name of the application gateway. Tier: select WAF V2. WAF Policy: Select Create new, type a name for the new policy, and then select OK. This creates a basic WAF policy with a managed Core Rule Set (CRS).

What is the difference between WAF front door and Application Gateway?

What is the difference between Azure Front Door and Azure Application Gateway? While both Front Door and Application Gateway are layer 7 (HTTP/HTTPS) load balancers, the primary difference is that Front Door is a non-regional service whereas Application Gateway is a regional service.

Do we need WAF for API gateway?

You can use AWS WAF to protect your API Gateway API from common web exploits, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. These could affect API availability and performance, compromise security, or consume excessive resources.

Can WAF replace firewall?

Because a WAF cannot protect against network-layer attacks, it should supplement rather than replace a network firewall. Web-based and network-based solutions protect different types of traffic. Rather than competing, they complement one another.

Can I use WAF without CloudFront?

Yes, you can use WAF with a server outside AWS. WAF works with CloudFront, and CloudFront does not require the origin server to be in the AWS ecosystem.

What is the difference between Application Gateway and web application firewall?

Azure Firewall is for non-web incoming traffic and all outgoing traffic. App Gateway WAF is for incoming web traffic. The Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a feature of Application Gateway that provides centralized inbound protection of your web applications from common exploits and vulnerabilities.

Is Application Gateway a firewall?

An application gateway or application level gateway (ALG) is a firewall proxy which provides network security. It filters incoming node traffic to certain specifications which mean that only transmitted network application data is filtered.

Is ACL part of WAF?

A web ACL (Web Access Control List) is the core resource in an AWS WAF deployment. It contains rules that are evaluated for each request that it receives. A web ACL is associated to your web application via either an Amazon CloudFront distribution, AWS API Gateway API or an AWS Application Load Balancer.

What is better than WAF?

Transitioning from a traditional WAF to WAAP and augmenting your application security posture with RASP is the recommended best practice for most organizations. This protects individual applications from certain threats using RASP while protecting all web-facing applications using a WAF or WAAP.
