A network firewall prevents unlawful network access to your website. However, most website attacks are perpetrated via ports that must be kept open to allow legitimate HTTP, HTTPS and FTP traffic. This is where an application firewall is important because it inspects all the traffic and separates legitimate traffic from attack attempts against your website.

Companies as Incapsula.com provides every web application, regardless of its size, with enterprise-grade Web Application Firewall, ensuring that the website's web application is safe and available.
