Oracle Dyn Web Application Security Platform extends beyond just typical Web Application Firewall (WAF) capabilities to offer Access Control, Bot Management, application DDoS protection and API security.
Easy to use and reliable, with very little maintenance required and zero downtime to date. For the education sector, ease of use is hugely important as IT Managers/Technicians are often "Jack of all trades" with a good, broad general knowledge but perhaps lacking specific expertise in certain aspects. Being provided with easy-to-follow tutorials and instructions has been very useful in setting up and configuring the firewall, especially as my background is more in desktop support.
Dyn WAF is a good product, don't get me wrong. Zenedge was constantly improving the product, adding new features on a regular basis. It works very well for dynamic websites, helping weed out SQL Injection, XSS, XSRF, and other attacks. We have also used this product to protect REST API endpoints. Again, the product works very well to repel attacks.
With Oracle Dyn Web Application Security Platform we have a complete dashboard (dojo) to manage, configure, visualize, all the features and functionalities of the platform in a very simple and friendly way.
Oracle Dyn Web Application Security Platform support is something out of the ordinary. Oracle engineers are available 24/7, every day. There is no requirement that can not be satisfactorily addressed by them. The response time, by different ways, is almost instantaneous.
It is very easy to communicate with any Oracle official to discuss any topic.
Despite being a service with all the features to provide 100% protection, my experience is that the cost of Oracle Dyn Web Application Security Platform is worth it.
STM crashes sometimes happen due to unusual traffic pattern
Obfuscation on the client side user credentials which appears in the developer tools of browser
URL Profiles redundancy during the learning of traffic needs to be fixed
Dos Protection should be more granular like escalation period to throw JS challenge, Captcha and rate limit when escalation period hits until the WAF stops the attack
Client Fingerprinting should work as expected when verifying the clients as in rare some scenarios, it creates issues
-User friendly interface for quick learning -Quick deployment for deploying applications -Easy to manage for naive -System components and upgradation of the WAF is very easy go with -Back restoration is very to make it up and ready anytime -Seperate JSON and XmL profiles for each URLs of the application is plus -Amazing and world class support engineer in comparison other vendors and always available to support -Quick resolution on bugs with their patch applying process
The Barracuda Web Application Firewall is easy to use. Support from Barracuda is great also. Load Balancing of the Web Application Firewall is also nice. This allows you to do maintenance or have large loads for the end-user. Threat monitoring of our network and traffic coming into our services within our cloud solution.
We have been using their Backup products especially Backup Appliances and legacy products like Intronis. We are also using their Cloud Backup Solutions for O365. This is the reason we opted for this product.
I already put this in earlier, but to repeat - they were easier to work with, more technically capable and knowledgeable and not just trying to sell us on something. Their willingness to solve for our problems and work with us made them the clear winner.
