Highlights Application Availability Applications are the lifeblood of a company’s online presence. Unresponsive applications can result in lost revenue and customers taking their future business elsewhere. Application performance, scalability, and resilience are key but none of this matters unless the end-user has a good experience and completes their transaction. FortiADC is a dedicated Application Delivery Control solution that provides a multi-tenancy solution (VDOM and ADOM), high availability, and scalability with hybrid solution deployment (on-premises and cloud offering) to your applications. Web Application Protection FortiADC Web Application Firewall (WAF) provides a comprehensive security solution designed to protect web applications from a wide range of threats. Our WAF includes robust features such as AL (Adaptive Learning), which dynamically analyzes client and server traffic to build policies in real-time for blocking web attacks. In addition to adaptive learning, FortiADC WAF offers extensive WAF signatures, ensuring protection against the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities. It also includes advanced API security and safeguards against credential stuffing attacks, delivering a holistic and intelligent approach to application security.
