Overview

Web Application Firewall (WAF) keeps web services stable and secure. It examines all HTTP and HTTPS requests to detect and block the following attacks: Structured Query Language (SQL) injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), web shells, command and code injections, file inclusion, sensitive file access, third-party vulnerability exploits, Challenge Collapsar (CC) attacks, malicious crawlers, and cross-site request forgery (CSRF).

This document describes how to use application programming interfaces (APIs) to perform operations on WAF, such as querying and updating.

Before calling WAF APIs, get yourself familiar with the WAF service.
