F5 BIG-IP Advanced WAF identifies and blocks attacks other WAFs miss. BIG-IP Advanced WAF delivers a dedicated, dynamic dashboard ensuring compliance against threats listed in the OWASP Top 10, guided configurations for common WAF use cases, learning engine and customized policy building, and granular security policies for microservices and APIs.

F5 BIG-IP Advanced WAF is available as a standalone solution or as an add-on module for BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager (LTM) on any F5 platform, and on BIG-IP LTM Virtual Edition (VE). F5 Access Manager (AM) is available as an add-on module to the Advanced WAF standalone appliance. F5 AM Lite (with 10 free user licenses) is included with any Advanced WAF standalone purchase.

Identify and block attacks other WAFs miss

  • Application-layer attacks can evade signature and reputation-based security solutions.
  • New application attack surfaces and increased threat thresholds are popping up due to the rapid adoption of APIs (ex. GraphQL APIs, OWASP Top 10).
  • Bring apps to market faster with lower cost and higher security efficacy.
  • Active attack campaigns are difficult to detect from singular attacks.
  • Automated attacks and bots can overwhelm application resources.
  • Attacks that steal application credentials or take advantage of compromised accounts.

BIG-IP Platforms

  • Virtual Editionsof BIG-IP software run on commodity servers and support the range of hypervisors and performance requirements. VEs provide agility, mobility, and fast deployment of app services in software-defined data centers and cloud environments. See the BIG-IP System Hardware, VIPRION, VELOS, and Virtual Edition data sheets for more details. For information about specific module support for each platform, see the latest release notes on AskF5. For the full list of supported hypervisors, refer to the VE Supported Hypervisors Matrix.
  • BIG-IP iSeriesappliances deliver quick and easy programmability, ecosystem-friendly orchestration, and record-breaking, software-defined hardware performance. As a result, customers can accelerate private clouds and secure critical data at scale while lowering TCO and future-proofing their application  F5 solutions can be rapidly deployed via integrations with open source configuration management tools and orchestration systems.
  • BIG-IP rSeriesappliances bridges the gap between traditional and modern infrastructures with a rearchitected, API-first platform designed to meet the needs of your traditional and emerging applications. The new F5 rSeries delivers unprecedented levels of performance, a fully automatable architecture, and the highest reliability, security and access control for your critical applications.
  • VELOSplatform is the next generation of F5’s industry-leading chassis-based systems, which delivers unprecedented performance and scalability in a single Application Delivery Controller (ADC). You can seamlessly scale capacity by adding modular blades in a chassis, without disruption, and VELOS allows a mix of traditional BIG-IP tenants as well as next-generation BIG-IP tenants in the future.
  • VIPRIONmodular chassis and blade systems designed specifically for performance and for true, on-demand, linear scalability without business disruption. VIPRION systems leverage F5’s ScaleN clustering technology so you can add blades without reconfiguring or rebooting.
