Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We were looking for a product that is capable of complete automation and a container based solution. It's working.""The initial setup was simple and took three to four days.""The most valuable feature is that there is a link in the system that will help to analyze the security of an application when something abnormal is found.""The most valuable feature of NGINX App Protect is its open source.""I tested specific features and evaluated the solution against the Web Application Firewall. I conducted research to test different detection percentages. I did not use it directly for protection but for evaluation purposes.""It is a very good tool for load balancing.""The most valuable feature of NGINX App Protect is the reverse proxy.""WAF is useful to track mitigation, inclusion, prevention, and the parametric firewall."

"We use the infrastructure as code scanning, which is good.""Cloud Native Security offers a valuable tool called an offensive search engine.""It used to guide me about an alert. There is something called an alert guide. I used to click on the alert guide, and I could read everything. I could read about the alert and how to resolve it. I used to love that feature.""With PingSafe, it's easy to onboard new accounts.""The most valuable features of PingSafe are the asset inventory and issue indexing.""The visibility is the best part of the solution.""The solution is a good alerting tool.""The UI is responsive and user-friendly."

Cons
"I encountered issues with NGINX App Protect while trying to upgrade custom rules.""The configuration needs to be more flexible because it is difficult to do things that are outside of the ordinary.""Right now, the tool doesn't provide an option revolving around update feeds, specifically the signature update option in the UI.""NGINX App Protect would be improved with integration with Shape and F5 WAF, which would make it easy for users to manage all their web application security with a single solution.""Areas for improvement would be if NGINX could scan for vulnerabilities and learn and update the signatures of DoS attacks.""Its technical support could be better.""The dashboard could provide a more comprehensive view of the status of the connections.""The setup of NGINX App Protect is complex. The full process took one week to complete. Additionally, we had to change the network infrastructure platform which took one month."

More NGINX App Protect Cons →

"When we get a new finding from PingSafe, I wish we could get an alert in the console, so we can work on it before we see it in the report. It would be very useful for the team that is actively working on the PingSafe platform, so we can close the issue the same day before it appears in the daily report.""I would like additional integrations.""One of the issues with the product stems from the fact that it clubs different resources under one ticket.""We are getting reports only in a predefined form. I would like to have customized reports so that I can see how many issues are open or closed today or in two weeks.""We had a glitch in PingSafe where it fed us false positives in the past.""The recommended actions aren't always specific, so it might suggest recommendations that don't apply to the particular infrastructure code I'm reviewing.""With Cloud Native Security, we can't selectively enable or disable alerts based on our specific use case.""We use PingSafe and also SentinelOne. If PingSafe integrated some of the endpoint security features of SentinelOne, it would be the perfect one-stop solution for everything. We wouldn't need to switch between the products. At my organization, I am responsible for endpoint security and vulnerability management. Integrating both functions into one application would be ideal because I could see all the alerts, heat maps, and reports in one console."

    Overview

    NGINX App Protect application security solution combines the efficacy of advanced F5 web application firewall (WAF) technology with the agility and performance of NGINX Plus. The solution runs natively on NGINX Plus and addresses some of the most difficult challenges facing modern DevOps environments:

    • High‑confidence signatures for extremely low false positives
    • Increases visibility, integrating with third‑party analytics solutions
    • Integrates security and WAF natively into the CI/CD pipeline
    • Deploys as a lightweight software package that is agnostic of underlying infrastructure
    • Facilitates declarative policies for “security as code” and integration with DevOps tools
    • Decreases developer burden and provides feedback loop for quick security remediation
    • Accelerates time to market and reduces costs with DevSecOps‑automated security
