Virtualize a back-end Web application
=============================
The Web application firewall service in DataPower can execute a security policy on messages that arrive in the DMZ before sending them to a back-end Web application.
WAF can also handle rate limit request and enforce an AAA policy but in our example, we are just virtualizing the host and secure the connection to the back-end Web application.
These tasks may also be performed on J2EE application servers such as WebSphere Application Server, but configuration using the DataPower management interface is much easier and does not require custom code.
For example let’s try to virtualize Citibank website and provide access with http connection by integrating with DataPower WAF.

Refer the below steps to achieve the scenario.
Step1: In the DataPower Control Panel, click Web Application Firewall:
Step2: Click Add wizard. The wizard then asks you a series of questions to generate a WAF service.
Step3: Name of WAF: CitiBankProxyApp
Step4: Backend web application details
https backend default port is: 443
http backend default port is: 80
Step5: Configure forward crypto profile for the https secure connection to Citibank application.
Step6: Configure the FSH details.
Step7: Configure rest all to default, just click next in all screens till we see the finial screen to commit the application.
And click on commit in the last screen
Step 8: Now access the Citibank Application using the FSH IP and port
http://192.168.136.128:1234/
So, you can overcome that with VPN, can you?
ReplyDeleteFor sure you can, just take a look bestvpnrating.cоm and find something that suits you.
DeleteI Like to add one more important thing here, The Web Application Firewall Market is expected to be around US$ 7.71 Billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 18% during the forecast period.
