A social media company wants to protect its web application from common web exploits such as SQL injections and cross-site scripting. Which AWS service will meet these requirements?
"AWS WAF is a web application firewall that helps protect web applications from attacks by allowing you to configure rules that allow, block, or monitor (count) web requests based on conditions that you define. These conditions include IP addresses, HTTP headers, HTTP body, URI strings, SQL injection and cross-site scripting."

A. Amazon Inspector - security assessment service that helps improve the security and compliance of applications deployed on AWS but doesn't protect web apps from live exploits.
B. AWS WAF - A web application firewall that allows users to create custom rules to filter and monitor HTTP or HTTPS requests to a web application. It helps protect against web exploits, including SQL injection attacks.
C. Amazon GuardDuty - continuously detects threats and unauthorized behavior but doesn't actively block web exploits.
D. Amazon CloudWatch - Primarily for monitoring and managing resources its not a security tool for blocking attacks.
