We are a data center company that hosts a variety of applications for our customers. We use these applications for two purposes: internal protection and external customer protection. Currently, all of our internal applications are hosted on the cloud and are safeguarded by the Cloud WAF service. Our customers also use the Cloud WAF service to protect their applications from external threats.

We aim to provide our customers with 99.99 percent infrastructure availability and 99.95 percent service uptime. When we guarantee availability and security, we must ensure we have the strongest security measures in your environment. That is the highest priority for the company.

We've deployed Radware for various applications in our environment. We have also successfully used it in heterogeneous customer environments without any issues. We have some internet-facing applications like SAP and Oracle. Our company has custom Java-based and .NET-based applications. The clients' ERP environments may also be vulnerable because they are the company's heart. We deploy and host many ERP environments and protect them against external attacks.

Radware Cloud WAF Service's ability to block unknown threats and attacks is useful. Radware Cloud WAF Service's best feature is its ability to protect against and log a wide range of unknown threats as part of its offerings.

I can confidently say that Radware Cloud WAF Service serves as a comprehensive solution for both our current and prospective customers, generating revenue for us. This service guarantees high uptime and availability of all our business applications while reducing overall operational complexity.

Automated event analytics are effective. We have automated event monitoring, which provides us with excellent analytical dashboards that help us identify any issues. These dashboards report, track, monitor, and ultimately resolve the issues. Therefore, the mitigation process is highly effective when utilizing these analytical dashboards.

We implemented API protection as a security measure, which includes an API discovery feature. This feature helps protect APIs from attacks, making it a valuable aspect of Radware Cloud WAF Service.

The API discovery feature provides outstanding end-to-end API protection. APIs play a crucial role in applications, often requiring extensive investigation. Having automated discovery and protection against external threats makes this feature even more exceptional.

API discovery is a user-friendly feature that comes with an automated algorithm. The algorithm detects APIs and generates tailored security policies to identify and log any real-time API FOCA attacks. This makes it an outstanding feature. Additionally, Radware repair protection can access the automated algorithm to discover APIs and create personalized security policies that can detect and prevent API worker attacks in real-time.

The API discovery aided in the reduction of our overhead costs by around 20 percent. The APIs are protected in real-time, which enabled us to decrease operational complexity and costs significantly.

We provide data center services and offer both public and private cloud options to our customers. Our Radware Cloud WAF Service provides comprehensive protection against bots and APIs, safeguarding all the Internet-facing applications hosted on our platform. As a result of implementing this service, our organization has greatly benefited.

The Radware Cloud WAF Service has been instrumental in reducing our false positives by nearly 25 percent. This is due to its comprehensive API protection and bot offerings, which have reduced operational complexity.

The cost of managing the overall solution decreased because we now require fewer personnel. With the tool's significant automation and numerous analytic dashboards, customers now feel more comfortable and have greater peace of mind than before.

I would rate the integration of Radware Cloud WAF Service a nine out of ten. This solution has user-friendly integration algorithms and features that make it easy to integrate with other applications. Once we become familiar with the product, the interfaces are straightforward to use. The software has an API, which enables different applications to communicate with each other, making it the best part of the solution. Therefore, API protection is included in the software, allowing applications to interact with each other seamlessly. Consequently, customers can feel more confident when using Radware Cloud WAF Service.

Radware Cloud WAF Service reduced the effort of our IT team, therefore, freeing up their time for other projects.

Radware Cloud WAF Service helped reduce our TCO because we can now offer this service to our customers. This has resulted in generating additional revenue, contributing to the overall cost savings.

After three months of implementing the Radware Cloud WAF Service and selecting the product, we began to see time to value.

We have recently upgraded our cloud WAF to Radware Cloud WAF Service to include WAF and ADA protection, as well as watch management and Layer 7. What makes this a comprehensive offering from Radware is that it combines WAF, ADA, bot management, and API protection, which is not currently available from any other provider in the market. The most valuable aspect of our service is its ability to safeguard applications from external threats, including the API. This sets the solution apart from other web operators in the market.

The lower-level technical team at Radware could improve their approach to problem-solving as they are sometimes very slow. While the higher management is highly active and supportive, the lower management and staff may take longer to provide support, leading to delays. Proactively improving their response time could enhance their overall performance. Otherwise, customers may need to escalate issues to the higher-ups, which could be avoided.

I have been using Radware Cloud WAF Service for over three years.

Radware Cloud WAF Service is stable. We have not had any performance issues.

I give Radware Cloud WAF Service a nine out of ten for scalability.

Radware Cloud WAF is a cloud-based solution, so it's scalable. We have a 5GB contract and can always increase. If it had been on-premises, Radware would be a less-scalable solution. We can easily add capacity if needed.

We have Radware's ERT premium support which is great.

We signed the highest-level SLA with Radware called ERT Premium Services, which guarantees a five-minute response from Radware 24/7. Radware India also provides support. We call management if we have an issue, and they take care of it. Radware also has an excellent knowledge base and community forums.

A few months ago, we had an attack at night and needed immediate support. I called the director of Radware India, and he immediately lined up the entire support team within a few minutes. They resolved the issue as soon as the ticket entered their system. In five minutes, we got support from the most senior employee of Radware India. When we were implementing the Radware DDoS, the management maintained communication with us and helped us get started fast.

It was the same with the Radware load balancer. We subscribed to the new load balancers, which we needed to provide additional capacity for our company over the next five years, and management was there to guide us in the right direction.

Compared to previous solutions, Radware Cloud WAF Service is a reliable product, especially when combined with senior management support. If we obtain both, such as contacting the senior manager, the Managing Director of Redwood in India, we can expect a response in a matter of minutes. This is the service's greatest advantage.

The initial setup was straightforward because we had the help of the Radware specialists. The implementation strategy involved conducting a brief proof of concept for a few applications within the entire solution. Once the POC was successful, we proceeded to deploy it in the test environment. After testing, we moved it to production within three months.

Our L1, L2, and L3 support, with the assistance of Radware, completed the deployment in five weeks on the back end.

Radware Cloud WAF Service is deployed in the cloud for internal applications hosted on Yotta, as well as for customers who chose to use this service.

The entire deployment took around six weeks, from the planning stage to the final rollout. We deployed the architecture, created the MSSP, configured the links, and created the domain names. We developed the implementation strategy with Radware and its partner. We first deployed the solution for approximately 20 or so internal applications. In phase two, we opened the solution up to customers.

After deployment, Radware WAF doesn't require much maintenance aside from updates and periodic maintenance windows on the vendor side.

Radware's partner helped with the implementation.

We experienced a positive return on investment of up to 50 percent, due to our ability to reduce false positives. This led to a significant decrease in the effort required to manage the solution and a reduction in the overall cost of ownership. Additionally, the solution generated revenue from customers as we can now identify and address external threats to their environment. As a result, we also receive renewals. This is the most significant benefit of the solution.

When compared to Akamai and F5, Radware's pricing and licensing are highly competitive. In fact, Radware offers the best price along with excellent licensing pricing. Moreover, we received ERP premium support as a part of the package, which would otherwise be a service that incurs a high cost.

We conducted an evaluation of F5 Advanced WAF and Akamai Web Application Protector, both of which performed well. However, the standout feature was Radware's five-minute SLA on their premium ERT support. This evaluation considers three factors: the product, the SLA, and the management support. Radware offers the highest level of ERP payment support with a response time of five minutes. Additionally, if any issues arise, we have the option to escalate to Radware's senior management, and we can expect a response from Radware's MD within a few minutes. When considering the product, SLA, and management support as a whole, we believe that Radware Cloud WAF Service is the best option.

I give Radware Cloud WAF Service a nine out of ten.

As of now, we have not had to maintain the solution.

I recommend Radware Cloud WAF Service for any organization which wants to be free from external threats.

A year ago, people were only talking about the WAF application firewall. Today, we refer to WAAP, which provides increased protection against threats and vulnerabilities. Radware came out with this innovative offering called WAAP, including, WAF, API and bot protection, and DDoS. This is an innovative solution. If you want peace of mind, Cloud WAF is a one-stop shop for your security needs. Radware WAAP is a comprehensive security solution.

We use Radware to protect our applications and the portals that we share with our clients and business partners.

Among the improvements to our organization is that we are calmer regarding the use of the applications that we publish. Radware gives us a level of confidence that assures us that, if there is an attack, we have a tool that will protect us and that will block suspicious behavior.

Cloud WAF Service has also helped us reduce false positives. I don't have the exact data on how much they have decreased, but once we enter the portal we can see network connections that have an unknown IP and we can scan and block applications automatically from countries in which we do not have clients.

It has also helped save time for our IT team. We don't dedicate so much time to the threats, but we directly review the reports. We have saved about 30 percent in time invested.

One of the most valuable features we have found in the solution is protection against attacks from botnet networks and the requests that these remote networks can generate that are blocked from our servers. That frees us from having to deal with that traffic.

Cloud WAF Service has also been useful for us in terms of blocking threats because it automatically detects them, detects behavior patterns that have a threat pattern, and directly blocks them. Without making any changes or decisions, we automatically have protection.

Also, regarding the classification of events, the solution does productive work in detecting the logs where there could be threats to our applications, and that is quite useful.

We have had difficulties with the configuration of rules when it comes to allowing connections and having a list of IPs that are authorized to use a specific service. We have not been able to make a whitelist work.

For example, if we want to publish services to a limited number of providers and we only want those providers to connect, we need to forward those requests to the Radware support team and they apply them, but it takes some time. It seems to me that this long process would be faster if the configuration could exist directly in the portal. That would make things easier.

We are in our third year of use of Radware Cloud WAF Service.

We have only had one network outage which happened a while ago. Fortunately, it was short and we were quickly back in business.

We have plans to increase the use of Radware in our enterprise. There are a couple of applications that are going to be added.

The technical support is very good.

We did not have a previous solution. It was a fairly quick decision to go with Radware. It was chosen because Cisco offered a package of security solutions in which Radware was included.

The initial setup was pretty easy. An engineer from Radware helped us. We scheduled a meeting, discussed the changes that we had to make internally at the DNS level, and that's it. The engineer who helped us was assigned by Radware and we had a pretty good experience with him. On our side it required two people, our system administrator and security analyst.

The programming process and our first use of the solution were quite successful. It was deployed with a set of default rules and policies in a short amount of time, and these gave a certain level of protection for our applications. When we started using it, we understood its features and potential.

In terms of maintenance, there are changes and revisions that need to be made from time to time, mainly to check for false positives. Generally, only one person participates in that process.

We have seen return on investment through the level of reliability of the application and the optimal stability that it gives to our users.

In terms of TCO, it has not been an expense. More than anything, it has been a beneficial service that has reduced TCO by approximately 70 percent.

Radware Cloud WAF Service is a good option. It is a good tool that will definitely give you the protection you are looking for.

The most important lesson that Radware has taught me is that, as a service, it can relieve you of many application security tasks.

¿Cuál es nuestro caso de uso principal?

Usamos Radware para proteger nuestras aplicaciones y los portales que compartimos con nuestros clientes y socios comerciales.

¿Cómo ha ayudado a mi organización?

Entre las mejoras de nuestra organización está que estamos más tranquilos en cuanto al uso de las aplicaciones que publicamos. Radware nos da un nivel de confianza que nos asegura que si hay un ataque, tenemos una herramienta que nos protegerá y bloqueará comportamientos sospechosos.

Cloud WAF Service también nos ha ayudado a reducir los falsos positivos. No tengo los datos exactos de cuánto han disminuido, pero una vez que entramos en el portal podemos ver conexiones de red que tienen una IP desconocida y podemos escanear y bloquear aplicaciones automáticamente de países en los que no tenemos clientes.

También ha ayudado a ahorrar tiempo para nuestro equipo técnico. No dedicamos tanto tiempo a las amenazas, pero revisamos directamente los informes. Hemos ahorrado alrededor del 30 por ciento en el tiempo invertido.

¿Qué es lo más valioso?

Una de las características más valiosas que hemos encontrado en la solución es la protección contra ataques de redes botnet y las solicitudes que pueden generar estas redes remotas que son bloqueadas de nuestros servidores. Eso nos libera de tener que lidiar con ese tráfico.

Cloud WAF Service también nos ha resultado útil en términos de bloqueo de amenazas porque las detecta automáticamente, detecta patrones de comportamiento que tienen un patrón de amenaza y los bloquea directamente. Sin tener que hacer algún cambio o decisión, estamos protegidos automáticamente.

Además, en cuanto a la clasificación de eventos, la solución hace un trabajo productivo al detectar los logs donde podría haber amenazas a nuestras aplicaciones, y eso es bastante útil.

¿Qué necesita mejorar?

Hemos tenido dificultades con la configuración de reglas a la hora de permitir conexiones y tener una lista de IPs que están autorizadas para usar un servicio específico. No hemos podido hacer que una lista blanca funcione.

Por ejemplo, si queremos publicar servicios para un número limitado de proveedores y solo queremos que esos proveedores se conecten, debemos reenviar esas solicitudes al equipo de soporte de Radware y ellos las aplican, pero lleva algo de tiempo. Me parece que este largo proceso sería más rápido si la configuración pudiera existir directamente en el portal. Eso facilitaría las cosas.

¿Por cuánto tiempo he usado la solución?

Estamos en nuestro tercer año de uso del servicio Radware Cloud WAF.

¿Qué pienso sobre la estabilidad de la solución?

Solo hemos tenido una interrupción de la red que ocurrió hace un tiempo. Afortunadamente, fue breve y rápidamente volvimos a la normalidad.

¿Qué opino de la escalabilidad de la solución?

Tenemos planes para aumentar el uso de Radware en nuestra empresa. Hay un par de aplicaciones que se van a agregar.

¿Cómo son el servicio de atención al cliente y el soporte?

El soporte técnico es muy bueno.

¿Cómo calificaría el servicio y soporte al cliente?

Positivo

¿Qué solución usé anteriormente y por qué cambié?

No teníamos una solución previa. Fue una decisión bastante rápida optar por Radware. Se eligió porque Cisco ofrecía un paquete de soluciones de seguridad en el que se incluía Radware.

¿Cómo fue la configuración inicial?

La configuración inicial fue bastante fácil. Un ingeniero de Radware nos ayudó. Programamos una reunión, discutimos los cambios que teníamos que hacer internamente a nivel de DNS y eso es todo. El ingeniero que nos ayudó fue asignado por Radware y tuvimos una experiencia bastante buena con él. Por nuestra parte, requería dos personas, nuestro administrador de sistemas y el analista de seguridad.

El proceso de programación y nuestro primer uso de la solución fueron bastante exitosos. Se implementó con un conjunto de reglas y políticas predeterminadas en un corto período de tiempo, y estas brindaron un cierto nivel de protección para nuestras aplicaciones. Cuando empezamos a usarlo, entendimos sus características y potencial.

En cuanto al mantenimiento, hay cambios y revisiones que deben realizarse de vez en cuando, principalmente para comprobar si hay falsos positivos. Generalmente, solo una persona participa en ese proceso.

¿Cuál fue nuestro Retorno de la Inversión?

Hemos visto el retorno de la inversión a través del nivel de confiabilidad de la aplicación y la estabilidad óptima que brinda a nuestros usuarios.

En términos de TCO, no ha sido un gasto. Más que nada, ha sido un servicio beneficioso que ha reducido el TCO en aproximadamente un 70 por ciento.

¿Qué otro consejo tengo?

Radware Cloud WAF Service es una buena opción. Es una buena herramienta que definitivamente te brindará la protección que buscas.

La lección más importante que me ha enseñado Radware es que, como servicio, puede liberarte de muchas tareas de seguridad de las aplicaciones.
