AWS WAF is a web application firewall service that helps protect web applications from common web exploits, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. It allows you to create rules to filter and monitor HTTP and HTTPS requests to your web applications. By defining conditions and rules, AWS WAF can inspect and filter incoming requests based on various criteria, including SQL injection and XSS patterns. It integrates with other AWS services, such as Amazon CloudFront and Application Load Balancer, to provide an additional layer of security for web applications.
