Upon re-read, I don't mentally equate WAF (which is related to the breach, with Firewalls. In my mind, they are two completely different controls. However, I'm not sure if that's a pervasive perspective or just my own. Therefore, my aforementioned statement about firewalls may or may not be valid. YMMV.
- runamok 7y ago? WAF stands for web application firewall... You don't equate a WAF with a hardware firewall? Just not understanding...
- relaunched 7y agoThe reporter said Firewall. When I read that, I don't think of a WAF, rather a more traditional firewall that separates internet from intranet. If others, including the reporter, generally think of WAFs when they read firewall, then my criticism on this particular point is unfair. For example, if someone listed 2 years of experience with firewall rules, I'd automatically think routing and not WAF rules configuration.
