Art of Defence's distributed open source firewall takes a different tack
About a month ago at the RSA conference we went from having little in the way of open source solutions for web application firewalls to two of them. We previously looked at IronBee the open source WAF project from Qualys and Ivan Ristic. Today we speak with George Hess, CEO of Art of Defence, developers of the open source WAF project.
George says that the big advantage for the open WAF project is that their WAF is a distributed model. The IronBee folks have focused on a different element of WAF. Art of Defence has a history of web application security development. It follows a channel/embedded model and thinks the open source WAF will have a similar path. Listen in as Mr. Hess explains this and more.
Enjoy!
