All news with #aws waf tag

🛡️ AWS WAF is now available in the AWS Asia Pacific (Taipei) Region, allowing customers to deploy web application firewall protections closer to their users. The service helps protect web applications from common exploits and automated bots that can affect availability, security, or resource consumption. Note that AWS WAF Bot Control with targeted inspection and the Anti-DDoS managed rule group are not currently available in this region.

📣 AWS WAF now includes a free allocation of Vended Logs ingestion to CloudWatch: 500 MB for every 1 million WAF requests processed, provided at no additional cost. The allocation is applied automatically across WAF vended logs to CloudWatch, S3, and Firehose and is reconciled on your AWS bill at month end. Usage beyond the included allowance is charged at standard AWS WAF Vended Logs CloudWatch rates. This change helps reduce logging costs while preserving comprehensive security visibility and analytics.
