Barracuda Web Application Firewall vs. Fortinet Managed Rules for AWS WAF

Barracuda Web Application Firewall (WAF) is purpose-built to protect your web, mobile, and API applications from today’s most advanced threats. It helps prevent data breaches and ensures business continuity by blocking OWASP Top 10 attacks, L4–L7 DDoS, zero-day exploits, and more. With Advanced Bot Protection powered by cloud-based machine learning, Barracuda WAF detects and stops malicious bots responsible for web scraping, credential stuffing, and account takeover attempts—before they can do damage.

Fortinet’s WAF rulesets are additional security signatures that can be used to enhance the protections included in the base AWS WAF product. They are updated on a regular basis to include the latest threat intelligence from the award-winning FortiGuard Labs. The Complete OWASP Top 10 Ruleset provides a comprehensive package for web application protection offered by Fortinet to help address the OWASP Top 10 web application threats.
