AWS WAF

AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a security service that helps protect your web applications from common web exploits and attacks. It allows you to create custom rules to filter and monitor HTTP/HTTPS requests based on conditions such as IP addresses, HTTP headers, and request patterns. AWS WAF helps safeguard applications against threats like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and other vulnerabilities.
