Why Web Application Firewalls Are an Indispensable Part of the Security Stack

While WAFs are tremendously valuable, they can only ever be one part of a layered defense in-depth approach that considers the full range of cybersecurity solutions currently available to businesses. The goal should be to have as many defensive layers as possible in place around your applications so that if one fails, others are in place to pick up the slack. But while they may not win the game on their own, WAFs will always be a vital part of the team - one that most businesses can't afford to live without.

Today, a staggering 98% of organizations say that human-centric design is important. And while it remains the case that only 59% of current applications fail to meet accessibility requirements, things on this front are quickly changing, in large part due to AI.
