ALB is integrated with WAF. When ALB spikes up, we know there’s something wrong. Usually, bots attack the applications.

We use it in the production environment. From time to time, we can see the metrics for the generated traffic on both the WAF and the infrastructure

These metrics are presented on the dashboard. We review this information and conclude that regular monitoring, along with dashboard evaluations, reaffirms the effectiveness of the system. This allows us to ensure that the investment we're making is justified and worthwhile.

AWS WAF has improved our organization by allowing us to restrict access to our services based on location, which means that only customers from specific locations can access our services. It helps protect against unauthorized access and data breaches.

Our organization is launching a lot of betas. We are creating a lot of new different systems for different customers. AWS WAF helps us a lot to make sure that the right customer gets the right access to the system.

It has improved our organization a lot because before we were having problems with access management. Things have gotten better using this product. It's protecting the files. It has been the best step for us.

We are no longer having problems with unauthorized access, where somebody breaches the system or comprises documents. Nothing like that has happened over the past year that we have been using this product. We're doing well and I believe we will continue to do well with this product.

Staff productivity has been high since we started using it. It has saved 80 to 90 percent of their time in some cases.

We do have a lot of external applications which are exposed to the internet and WAF provides protection for them. We haven't seen a decrease in the mean time to respond to threats because it has caught everything.

The solution has also increased staff productivity by as much as 50 percent.

Engineer at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees

Because it integrates with the existing AWS solution, we get a lot of support without having to do much extra work. It has helped increase staff productivity and has probably saved at least one engineer, not having to have an engineer on staff for it.
