        Web Application Firewall

       Beside Data Leakage Prevention, a Web Application Firewall
       enhances security by means of guarding from common web-based
       application threats.
       In order to detect application-layer attacks (for example
       Injection, Cross-Site Scripting, Cross-Site Request Forgery or
       session/cookie-based flaws in general) and prevent them even
       before they reach the application itself, the HTTP-traffic
       (layer 7) gets interpreted and monitored. This allows checking
       requests (or at least responses) for suspicious activity or
       known weaknesses that have not been fixed by the maintainer so
       far on the basis of included signatures or custom rulesets.
       This global approach as "Single Point of Detection", combined
       with a fine-grained control, ensures protection of several
       systems without the need of touching the existing applications
       and meets the PCI DSS requirements. The use of cookie- and
       URL-encryption improves the protection against several common
       threats once more significantly.
