Network Firewall and Protocol Security with AFM
Security that keeps pace with your applications – on-premise and in the cloud.
Attacks moved up the stack: credential stuffing, API abuse, bots that look like customers, and encrypted traffic that hides all of it. F5 answers with Advanced WAF and API security on BIG-IP, WAAP and Bot Defense on Distributed Cloud, AFM for the network layer, and SSL Orchestrator to see inside TLS.
JustADC designs, deploys and tunes those controls so they block attacks without blocking your users.
Advanced Firewall Manager turns the BIG-IP in front of your applications into a high-performance layer 3 and 4 firewall that understands the applications it protects. For data-center edges and application zones it removes a device from the path – and a vendor from the patch cycle.
What we deploy
- Firewall policies – rules at global, route-domain, virtual-server and self-IP context, with address and port lists managed as code and staged before enforcement.
- IP Intelligence – reputation feeds and custom categories that drop known-bad sources before they consume application resources.
- Protocol security – DNS and SIP inspection, protocol compliance and rate limits for the services that attract abuse.
- Network address translation – carrier-grade and enterprise NAT policies with logging that satisfies regulators.
- Logging and reporting – high-speed logging to Splunk, Elastic or your SIEM, with the firewall reports auditors ask for.
Migrating from other firewalls
We convert rulebases from Check Point, Cisco, Fortinet and Palo Alto Networks into AFM policies, remove the dead rules that accumulate over a decade, and run both firewalls in parallel until the logs prove the new policy is equivalent.
