AWS WAF is a web application firewall that helps protect your applications or APIs against common web exploits and bots that may affect availability, compromise security, or consume excessive resources. You can control how traffic reaches your applications based on security rules to manage bot traffic and block common attack patterns.

You can deploy AWS WAF on Amazon CloudFront as part of your CDN solution, the Application Load Balancer that fronts your web servers or origin servers running on EC2, Amazon API Gateway for your REST APIs, or AWS AppSync for your GraphQL APIs. With AWS WAF, you pay only for what you use and the pricing is based on how many rules you deploy and how many web requests your application receives.
