Symantec Web Application Firewall Valuable Features
Symantec Web Application Firewall has helped our organization in managing threat activities by providing insights from the dashboard that are really helpful, such as how many malicious attacks it has blocked and what kind of traffic we are seeing, including unauthorized access traffic. Since we have multiple web applications deployed and currently have five projects running on it, all that data is invaluable.
The best feature of Symantec Web Application Firewall is that it is very easy to use, and the deployment and implementation processes are really easy. It also covers all the OWASP security measures for any web application, which makes it very handy for us to implement and deploy.
The integration of Symantec Web Application Firewall with our existing infrastructure is really easy to implement and very user-friendly, which has positively affected our security posture. After using different solutions earlier, the ease of deployment has reduced our implementation efforts and the testing of the firewall and security checks we do before deployment, making it quite handy.
Although I don't know much about machine learning since we haven't explored that area yet, I've noticed that after implementing Symantec Web Application Firewall, clients are happy with the performance and security measures it provides. We have seen improvements in client appreciation and reductions in data breaches and malicious software attacks that were happening earlier.
With Symantec Web Application Firewall, improvements include easy implementation of solutions since we previously took more time with other software for deployment. The deployment process has been really easy, and it is easier for us to convince our customers concerning data security and access authorization. As an organization, we have also increased our revenue by implementing these kinds of solutions.
