ICSA Labs Web Application Firewall testing program will evaluate and certify products that implement security policy enforcement for the protection of HTTP and HTTPS web-based applications. Our criteria ensures that WAF products provide essential functionality to secure vital application services from exploitation or attack.
In conjunction with ongoing efforts in the industry to classify and categorize application security issues and mitigate potential vulnerabilities, the Web Application Firewall Certification criteria was developed to help security managers gauge the effectiveness of these products. Our program offers the end user community a selection of products that provide security and quality.
Congratulations to the following 2017 Excellence in Information Security Testing (EIST) Award winners for their outstanding achievement! Winners are recognized for demonstrating a high standard of quality through independent third-party product assurance testing with ICSA Labs.Visit the EIST Awards page for more information.
The ICSA Labs audit report additionally highlighted DefensePro’s ability to detect and mitigate 30 different scenarios in 8 sections ranging from application-layer DoS/DDoS floods to mitigating brute force, to handling SSL and other application misuse. In every case, the attack was detected and mitigated by the inline DefensePro.
Knowing the benefits of certification is important for security product vendors and enterprises to understand. The first step is to understand what certification is and what it is not.
