Over the last few months, we’ve deployed a major upgrade to the SecureCDN WAF Traffic Analysis System, making it even more accurate, improving the overall performance, and making it easier for customers to understand.
Each request snapshot is sent to the Traffic Analysis System, which tags and classifies the requestor and then sends back the details to each of our network PoPs. When a human user or bot tries to interfere with your website, our analysis system tags them. This reputational data is then shared across all of our sites.
StackPath’s web application firewall (WAF) has a 2-tier architecture. The first tier is the WAF layer located in each point of presence (PoP) on our network. The second tier is our central security cloud, called the Traffic Analysis System. It’s this second tier that we’ve upgraded during our recent deployment.
