What is AWS Web Application Firewall?

AWS WAF helps you protect against common web exploits and bots that can affect availability, compromise security, or consume excessive resources. AWS WAF is a web application firewall that helps protect web applications from attacks by allowing you to configure rules that allow, block, or monitor (count) web requests based on conditions that you define. These conditions include IP addresses, HTTP headers, HTTP body, URI strings, SQL injection and cross-site scripting.
