What Is A Web Application Firewall?
Firstly, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a security system that protects web applications from malicious traffic, vulnerabilities, and attacks. At KLR, we offer expert Web Application Firewall solutions that guard your online platforms from threats like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and DDoS attacks.
Why A Web Application Firewall Is Essential
Because cyber threats target websites daily, WAFs ensure continuous uptime, data security, and regulatory compliance for modern businesses.
