API discovery, bot defense, and DDoS capability optimize application security and development
I see areas in Radware Cloud WAF Service for improvement, specifically in its initial tuning period, because the machine learning model takes two to three weeks for baseline behavior establishment. Closely monitoring alerts during this period is essential to avoid false positives. There's an alert noise issue; during the early stages, we received a high volume of alerts for minor issues, requiring collaboration with the SOC team to fine-tune thresholds and concentrate on genuine threats. The documentation is not up to par, as while the platform's system is robust, the documentation, particularly for API integration, could be more developer-friendly with real-world use cases.

It's not easy to get out once you're in
Sitelock may perform a useful service, but be wary of giving them your credit card information. When you sign on for the paid service, Sitelock: * Hides (makes it difficult to find) that they default the auto-renew (you can't sign up without agreeing to have them automatically bill your credit card every year). * Hides (makes it difficult to find) how to stop auto-renew: * You can't just stop auto-renew from your billing panel, the way you can with reputable businesses. * You have to hunt their website for a link (in extremely small font) to the page which contains instructions for cancelling. * When you get to that page, turns out it's the 5000+ word "Terms of Service" document, which you have to scour to find a phone number. Then, you have to call and get put on hold (or if you like, they will call you back three days later). Once you finally get through, you have to jump through a lot of security hoops. All of the above, just to cancel the service. Their product may or may not be OK, but be forewarned that with Sitelock, it's not easy to get out once you're in.
