Advanced Application Protection with Azure WAF

Recently, I presented “Advanced Application Protection with Azure Web Application Firewall (WAF)” at the Nashua Cloud .NET User Group. In this session, Udai explains how Azure WAF is a powerful solution for protecting web applications against common vulnerabilities like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and DDoS attacks. Azure WAF provides customizable rules, automated threat intelligence feeds, and seamless integration with other Azure services such as Front Door, Application Gateway, and Sentinel. Udai walks you through Azure WAF’s key features, deployment scenarios, and benefits, showcasing its real-time monitoring capabilities and flexibility to meet evolving security needs.

The presentation includes a demo of configuring WAF policies, setting up custom rules, and using Azure Threat Intelligence to secure your applications proactively. You’ll also learn about implementing TOR protection and automated custom rule settings to keep your defenses current. This resource is invaluable for IT professionals and developers looking to enhance their application security with a scalable, cost-effective solution.

If you’re interested in learning how to secure your web applications with Azure WAF, watch Udai’s expert-led presentation and discover how to leverage the power of Azure to safeguard your digital assets.
