sys://definition
What is a Web Application Firewall (WAF)?
A Web Application Firewall (WAF) analyzes web and HTTP traffic and blocks malicious requests before they reach the protected website or web application. It inspects incoming requests against security rules, then lets legitimate traffic through. BitNinja WAF applies that website firewall on Linux web servers so hosting providers and sysadmins can protect many sites from one place.
sys://coverage
What attacks does BitNinja WAF protect against?
BitNinja WAF stops SQL injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), CMS exploits and other malicious HTTP requests before they reach the application.
01
SQL injection
Blocks requests that try to manipulate databases through the web application.
02
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
Filters requests that attempt to inject malicious scripts into websites.
03
CMS exploits
Applies rules for common CMS vulnerabilities on hosted websites.
04
Malicious HTTP requests
Rejects suspicious web traffic that does not belong in a legitimate request.

How does BitNinja WAF work?
BitNinja WAF inspects incoming HTTP requests against cloud-updated rules, blocks malicious traffic, and forwards legitimate requests to the website or application.
01
Incoming web request
HTTP and HTTPS requests to hosted sites hit BitNinja WAF first.
02
Traffic inspection
The WAF examines each request against its ruleset. It runs as a standalone engine, so it does not depend on Apache, NGINX or LiteSpeed modules.
03
WAF rules and threat detection
Cloud-updated rules, including CMS-specific patterns, evaluate the request in real time.
04
Malicious request blocked
Requests that match attack patterns are rejected automatically.
05
Legitimate traffic reaches the application
Clean requests continue to the website, so legitimate visitors are not interrupted.
sys://waf-depth
Core BitNinja WAF capabilities
Per-domain controls, CMS-focused rules, and less wasted work on the origin.
02 // CMS
Advanced CMS protection
Custom WAF rules cover WordPress, Joomla, Drupal and more, and update as new vulnerabilities appear. That keeps common hosted CMS stacks protected at the request layer.

Load reduction
Blocking malicious requests before they reach applications reduces unnecessary work on the web server. SSL terminating also offloads HTTPS connections, with no prior setup required.
