You might have heard about 'WAFs' (web application firewalls) from someone cold emailing you a commercial offer, or you might have heard about mod_security. Not sure what they are about and how they “secure” you? Say no more. In this presentation, we will delve into the realm of Web Application Firewalls, sparked by encounters with commercial vendors and open-source solutions like mod_security. Join us as we unravel the intricacies of WAFs, understanding what and how they 'firewall', and some techniques on how to bypass them, all in an effort to demystify their role in today’s security landscape.
