Application Security Solutions
Apps enable the business to capture opportunities and customers, but attackers can disrupt strategic outcomes for financial gain. F5 can help.
Why Application Security Matters
Attackers target applications by exploiting vulnerabilities, abusing logic to gain access to sensitive data, and inflicting large-scale fraud that causes serious business disruption.
Commonly used security controls frustrate users, leading to transaction abandonment and lost revenue—yet they are easily bypassed by motivated cybercriminals.
Security must protect strategic business outcomes, including the customer experience.
How F5 Application Security Solutions Can Help
Protect your apps, APIs, and customers across data centers, clouds, and architectures with adaptive security that disrupts attacker ROI and provides long-standing effectiveness to prevent business compromise.
Deter motivated attackers that attempt to bypass security countermeasures, such as CAPTCHA, MFA, and anti-automation defenses, with resilient protection the world’s most valuable brands depend on.

Protect User Credentials
Guard against the most common tactic used by hackers—credential-based attacks
Over 1.5 billion user credentials were exposed in 2020. Users can be partners or employees but are more often customers who have value in their accounts and loyalty to your brand. If the perceived value is high enough, motivated hackers will enter the adaptation stage of credential-based attacks to bypass your anti-automation defenses, leading to manual, human-driven fraud.
Mitigate Application Vulnerabilities
Defend against software and code-level vulnerabilities
Protecting your apps against existing and emerging OWASP Top 10 threats requires a defense-in-depth app protection strategy. F5 provides protection against code-level vulnerabilities, like injection or XSS attacks, as well as software vulnerabilities found in components of nearly all software stacks.
Mitigate Bots and Abuse
Remove unwanted automation that can lead to account takeover and fraud
Just as enterprises continue to adopt automation to gain process efficiencies, attackers have embraced automation – bots – leading to abuse, account takeovers, fraud, and damaged brands. F5 offers protection that adapts to attacker tactics, without friction, to ensure successful business outcomes.
Manage and Secure APIs
Solve for your modern API challenges
It can be challenging to protect exposed APIs as keeping inventory of all APIs can be a daunting task and most API gateways lack adequate security controls. F5 offers a flexible solution that protects your APIs with the same robust security as your web and mobile apps.
Integrate Security into CI/CD Pipelines
Capture the market and competitive advantage of modern application development
Application protection and intelligent traffic routing can be automatically provisioned through the same tools and processes driving your CI/CD pipeline. This way, your DevOps teams can leverage existing development and deployment pipelines, without slowing innovation or increasing company risk.
Prevent Account Takeover (ATO)
Stop credential stuffing and other attacks that otherwise lead to compromise and fraud
Cyber criminals abuse login pages and API authentication to exploit people, process, and technology—disrupting commerce, customer experience, and your business.
Stop ATO and secure your business outcomes with security that blocks unwanted automation, stays effective and resilient in the face of attacker retooling, and ultimately stops fraud without introducing customer friction.
Enable Frictionless Authentication
Businesses compete for loyalty online—get ahead with a new approach to authentication
Widely used authentication methods are effective at frustrating customers—but fail to protect the business from sophisticated fraud and abuse.
Attackers have a variety of tools to bypass authentication. Digital fingerprints can be purchased on the dark web. Real-time phishing proxies (RTPP) can intercept and replay MFA codes. CAPTCHA solvers make it easy for attackers to bypass challenges. It’s time to gain competitive advantage and customer loyalty with friction-free auth security.
