The whitepaper provides a comprehensive comparison of leading Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions, highlighting significant differences in Security Quality and Detection Quality. CloudGuard WAF emerged as the top performer with the highest Balanced Accuracy, demonstrating superior protection against both known and zero-day attacks.

The whitepaper discusses the limitations of traditional Web Application Firewalls (WAF) that rely on static signatures and introduces contextual machine learning as a superior alternative. This new approach enhances web application security by providing preemptive protection, reducing false positives, and adapting to evolving threats.
