Job ID: 2784536 | Amazon Development Center U.S., Inc.Web Application Firewall (WAF) makes it easy for customers to author firewall policies which inspect incoming HTTP requests to help protect their applications from attacks by allowing them to configure rules that allow, block, monitor (count), or CAPTCHA web requests based on conditions that they define. These conditions include IP addresses, HTTP headers, HTTP body, URI strings, SQL injection and cross-site scripting. By supporting association with CloudFront, Application Load Balancer, API Gateway, and AppSync customers can protect their applications and resources whether all in on the Cloud, maintaining on-premise data centers, or using a hybrid Cloud approach.

What challenges does the WAF Team tackle?We build a highly available low latency distributed system that allows customers to propagate changes worldwide in minutes to respond to active attacks in real-time. We’re fully integrated with several others AWS Services to give customers the insight and control they need.
