Gartner Magic Quadrant for Web Application Firewalls (2020 - 2016)
A web application firewall (WAF) is an application firewall for HTTP applications. It applies a set of rules to an HTTP conversation. Generally, these rules cover common attacks such as cross-site scripting (XSS) and SQL injection.
While proxies generally protect clients, WAFs protect servers. A WAF is deployed to protect a specific web application or set of web applications. A WAF can be considered a reverse proxy.
According to Gartner, by 2023, more than 30% of public-facing web applications will be protected by cloud web application and API protection (WAAP) services that combine distributed denial of service (DDoS) protection, bot mitigation, API protection, and WAFs. This is an increase from fewer than 10% today.
By 2024, most organizations that implement a multi cloud strategy for web applications in a production environment will only use cloud WaaP services.
