If you're building and hosting your own web applications, you're also responsible for protecting them. Thatβs where SafeLine comes in β a powerful, self-hosted Web Application Firewall (WAF) designed to block common threats before they even touch your backend.
Why Use a WAF?
A WAF acts as a security layer between your web app and the open internet. It analyzes all incoming HTTP/HTTPS traffic and blocks malicious requests using predefined detection rules.
SafeLine Defends Against:
- SQL injection
- Cross-site scripting (XSS)
- Code and command injection
- Remote code execution (RCE)
- XXE and SSRF
- Path traversal
- CRLF injection
- LDAP and XPath injection
- Backdoors and brute-force attacks
- Bot abuse and HTTP floods
And many more.
How SafeLine Works
Unlike a traditional forward proxy, a WAF sits in front of your web server and acts as a reverse proxy. Every request from the internet is intercepted by SafeLine, inspected, and either forwarded to the app or blocked.
This allows SafeLine to filter, monitor, and block malicious traffic in real time, helping you stay ahead of automated scanners and targeted attacks.
