Web application firewall

NetBenefit has partnered with Barracuda to complement its firewall range with a web application firewall.

A web application firewall helps protect your application against attempted fraud or data theft and is a key component of the NetBenefit PCI toolkit.  By installing a web application firewall, you will immediately satisfy the requirements of PCI DSS section 6.6.

In addition to protecting against malicious attacks, a web application firewall can also increase the performance and scalability of your applications. Customers who have deployed the Barracuda web application firewall have experienced increased usage of their web applications and services.

  • Protects websites and web applications against application layer attacks
  • Delivers best practices security right out of the box

NetBenefit will configure and install the web application firewall during the course of the deployment process. You will then have access to a real-time user interface which will allow you to monitor and track common application attacks, performance statistics and bandwidth usage.
