If you require detailed application security and want to configure your WAF to combat OWASP top 10 threats, F5 ASM (or WAF) is an excellent choice. While there are other vendors in the market offering similar capabilities, F5 ASM stands out in terms of configurability and addressing specific security requirements.
The strength of F5 Application Security Firewall is impressive. With a single click and a license, you can enable WAF on the F5 Load Balancer. F5 offers a unified appliance that combines load balancing and WAF functionalities. This means that while load balancing your application, you don't need to route user requests to separate products. F5 inspects user requests for security purposes during the load balancing process. The configuration options for application security are comprehensive, and the WAF learns the application to effectively block unwanted traffic.
Configuring F5 WAF requires deep knowledge and expertise. The configuration GUI can be complex, leading to potential confusion during the setup process. Additionally, the price of the solution is quite high.
Perimeter 81 assists me in safeguarding the personal and sensitive information of my customers. As someone who deals with such data, this product helps me ensure its security and protection.
The best aspect of Perimeter 81, as experienced by my company, is its flawless performance and speed. So far, I haven't encountered any issues, and everything has been working efficiently. I have no negative feedback to share.
There are no complaints or dislikes to mention at this time. Everything has been functioning well.
F5 BIG-IP Advanced Web Application Firewall addresses our organization's need for protecting and load balancing all external applications. By leveraging the WAF functionality, we can secure every application that is exposed to the outside. The combination of WAF and load balancing features provides significant benefits in terms of security and performance."
One of the standout features is the automatic updating of signatures, relieving the concern of manual updates. The bot defense capability is highly valuable, and the ability to easily identify blocked URLs from the logs is a great advantage.
The user interface could be improved to enhance user-friendliness. F5 should invest in refining the interface for a more intuitive and user-friendly experience.
The product solves the problem of remote access by providing a SaaS solution with dedicated access points and IP address allocations. This greatly benefits our organization by ensuring secure and reliable remote access for our team members.
One of the standout features is how quickly and seamlessly we were able to replace our remote access solution during our SOC2 Type II process. Within just 15 minutes, we connected our G-Suite for SSO, implemented access restrictions for our GCP instances, configured IP whitelisting for our main SaaS services, and invited our entire team. The user-friendly native agent has made it easy for both technical and non-technical teams to use without any issues. Additionally, having access points in the specific geo-locations we needed (Israel, EMEA, and US) has greatly improved performance.
There isn't much to dislike, especially after exploring other solutions. However, it would be nice to have additional dashboards, bandwidth tracking, and more granular traffic control within the Perimeter 81 network as our company grows.
