F5 Networks Is One To Watch In The Web Application Firewall Market

The Forrester Wave™ Vendor Summary, Q2 2006

by Michael Gavin

with Jennifer Albornoz Mulligan, Laura Koetzle, Sarah Bernhardt


Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

F5 Networks BIG-IP Application Security Module (ASM) is a strong complement to the vendor's application delivery products. The architecture is well-designed, which enables tight integration among its products, lending F5 Networks a possible unique advantage for the future. Currently, the product lacks a number of automated features that the market leaders have already deployed, including highly granular policies. ASM can often enforce these protections, but it requires manually written rules from either the F5 Networks DevCentral iRules community or the administrator herself.
