F5 BIG-IP ASM WAF Rules Report
Invicti scans your system to identify vulnerabilities that may have a critical or high severity level. If you cannot fix these vulnerabilities immediately, attackers may exploit them and take control of your website. Invicti helps prevent malicious hackers from attacking these vulnerable URLs in your system by allowing you to export rules for F5 BIG-IP Web Application Firewall (WAF).
By generating Invicti’s findings as F5 BIG-IP WAF Rules:
- You can immediately block requests to a resource if the requests contain malicious payloads that would exploit it
- Developers gain time in fixing these vulnerable points
- Your system remains secure until a fix is found and patched.
Please note that you cannot cover all security flaws by blocking access to a specific resource using a web application firewall. For example, application source code disclosure cannot be exported as a F5 BIG-IP WAF rule.
Both Invicti editions allow the export of scan results as F5 BIG-IP WAF Rules.
