Description

AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a service that helps you protect your cloud resources from malicious web requests. AWS WAF allows you to apply security rules to block bot traffic and common web request attacks.

AWS WAF supports a number of pre-configured rules provided by AWS as well as letting you configure custom rules specific to your applications and systems.

Learning how to use AWS WAF will make you more effective at deploying secure solutions in the AWS public cloud.

In this lab challenge, you will be tested on your practical ability to build out a solution in a production-like AWS environment. You are presented with a task and a set of requirements that you must fulfill to pass the challenge.

This is a real environment, which means you can prove your knowledge in an applied situation, leaving behind multiple choice questions for a dynamic performance-based exam situation.
