Pulse (previously Brocade) Virtual Web Application Firewall (Pulse vWAF) is a scalable security platform for off-the-shelf solutions and custom applications which envelopes applications in their own security perimeter. It proactively detects and blocks attacks at the application layer and shortens the window of attack from external threats by reducing risk and exposure while securing outgoing traffic to help compliance with PCI-DSS and HIPAA. It's application-aware and offers the highest protection and performance in web and cloud application security.
Pulse vWAF provides a wide range of features to secure your applications and the business critical data they contain. It offers out of the box protection and complete transparency for Security Admins that will enable you to reduce false positives. With the Pulse vWAF you can take a proactive security stance and offer a layered approach to App security, responding quickly to address new threat vectors via easily imported ruleset recommendations, whitelisting and automated learning.
You can delegate security policies for individual clients and applications and add role-based access control, including administrator and audit privileges. It's simple to use and manage with simplified ruleset configuration (via setup wizards and web console) and offers integrated statistics and logging with existing SIEM systems.
The cost of Pulse Virtual Web Application Firewall varies from $0.92 USD per hour for deployment on a server of 12 cores or less, up to $1.41 USD per hour for deployment on a server of 16 cores or more.
