### Web application firewall
211211
[Web application firewall (WAF)](../../web-application-firewall/ag/ag-overview.md) is a feature of [Application Gateway](../../application-gateway/overview.md) that provides centralized protection of your web applications from common exploits and vulnerabilities.

Web application firewall is based on rules from the [OWASP core rule sets](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_ModSecurity_Core_Rule_Set_Project) 3.0 or 2.2.9. Web applications are increasingly targets of malicious attacks that exploit common known vulnerabilities. Common among these exploits are SQL injection attacks, cross site scripting attacks to name a few. Preventing such attacks in application code can be challenging and may require rigorous maintenance, patching and monitoring at multiple layers of the application topology. A centralized web application firewall helps make security management much simpler and gives better assurance to application administrators against threats or intrusions. A WAF solution can also react to a security threat faster by patching a known vulnerability at a central location versus securing each of individual web applications. Existing application gateways can be converted to a web application firewall enabled application gateway easily.
