Configuring F5 Advanced WAF

Bitte beachten Sie: Die Veranstaltungen zu diesem Kurs finden in englischer Sprache statt. Der Kurs löst das bisherige Training F5-TRG-BIG-ASM-ESS - Configuring BIG-IP® ASM: Application Security Manager ab.

In this 4 day course, students are provided with a functional understanding of how to deploy, tune, and operate F5 Advanced Web Application Firewall to protect their web applications from HTTP-based attacks.

The course includes lecture, hands-on labs, and discussion about different F5 Advanced Web Application Firewall tools for detecting and mitigating threats from multiple attack vectors such web scraping, Layer 7 Denial of Service, brute force, bots, code injection, and zero day exploits.
