AppTrana Overview

Rama Sadhu Updated by Rama Sadhu

AppTrana is a scalable, comprehensive, and fully managed application security platform that provides web application and API protection. 

We have categorized the application security platform into four different modules: 

  1. Web Application Firewall 
  2. Bot management  
  3. DDOS Protection 
  4. API Protection

Web Application Firewall 

 

WAF (Web Application Firewall) acts as a shield for websites and users. It allows you to create rules that inspect incoming traffic and block, challenge, log, or allow specific requests. Apart from the web application security, it helps to enhance the speed and performance of the web application. 

To know more about WAF, read our blog https://www.indusface.com/blog/category/web-application-firewall/ 

Bot Management by AppTrana 

 

Bot management is all about differentiating the good bots and the bad bots and allowing only the good bots. We use modular programming to detect and inspect the requests. Every request will be inspected, whether it is a human request or a bot request. If a request is inspected as bot, further the same request will be inspected whether it is a good bot or bad bot. The identified bad bots will be mitigated by applying the set of rules.

We have added the following new modules to enhance bot protection:  

Our bot protection modules- Allow Good Bots/ Block Good Bot Pretenders, Tor IP, User Agent Based Detection, Suspicious Countries, IP Reputation, Data Center IP, and Anomaly Detection add their own risk score, for an identity (generally an IP), then, the risk score continuously gets adjusted and when it goes above a threshold then the identity will be blocked. Users get to adjust at what threshold bots should be blocked by configuring their sensitivity to bots in the AppTrana portal.  

DDoS Protection 

 

AppTrana offers multiple layers of DDoS protection. It is necessary as multiple attack vectors are often used by the attackers. We use a detailed approach with unique policies, where customers can manage the policies as per the choice to mitigate all the types of DDoS attacks.  

We provide Behavioral-based DDoS Protection and URI-based DDoS Protection to mitigate various types of DDoS attacks based on custom needs.

API Protection 

 

In general, API’s act as a bridge between the client-side of the application and the server-side of the application.  

 The API(s) protection includes: 

  1. Content validation 
  2. Access control 
  3. Rate limiting 
  4. Sensitive data/data security, and so on.
