What is Prophaze AppSec Platform? How it works?

Prophaze is built natively on the Kubernetes Platform and secures customer's Kubernetes clusters and cloud infrastructure from various attack vectors.

Prophaze AppSec Platform is a cybersecurity tool designed for DevOps teams and cloud providers in manufacturing, healthcare, education, fintech, and cloud ERP sectors. It helps manage Kubernetes deployments and protects web assets from cyber threats, misconfigurations, attacks, bots, and vulnerabilities.

Key features of Prophaze AppSec include behavioral analytics, incident management, machine learning, endpoint management, denial-of-service (DDoS) protection, and virtual patching. The Prophaze AI firewall blocks new malware variants, malicious requests, zero-day attacks, and execution of fileless attacks, assisting organizations with API protection, account takeover, web security, bot management, and DDoS prevention.

Prophaze AppSec continually updates security policies that include whitelisting, blacklisting, response filtering, virtual patching, and blocking, enabling security teams to automate policies based on specific behaviors and activities of users and applications. The system can be hosted on-premise on Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud or set up as a virtual WAF server in private clouds.

Prophaze AppSec integrates with the following communications, security information and event management (SIEM), and security monitoring tools and cloud services:

• Microsoft Teams

• Slack

• Splunk

• Datadog

• Kubernetes

• Google Cloud

• AWS

• Microsoft Azure

How it works?

Prophaze AppSec is a new-generation web application firewall that intelligently tracks down malicious requests into your Web APIs. It uses multiple attack detection algorithms to monitor all the incoming requests and will pass only legitimate requests to the host server.

Prophaze logs all packets to the server internally and makes an intelligent analysis based on both dynamic and intelligent threat detection methodologies.
