Bot management tool enhances defense capabilities against DDoS and SQL injections
This solution is a bot management tool that provides extensive capabilities for Cloud Armor. It helps with DDoS defense and OWASP for SQL injections and cross-site scripting. We can rewrite these rule sets for DDoS protection. Integration with Cisco WAF is possible. It is scalable and integrates with Google's Kubernetes for easier scaling processes. It includes AI features like auditing and logging for troubleshooting.

Security controls have protected servers from advanced attacks and now simplify daily monitoring
The best feature of Trend Micro Deep Security is Application Control, where we can put it in lockdown mode, and applications that are already applied or installed will be executed, while new ones will be blocked automatically. Trend Micro Deep Security is an advanced threat protection product that helps our servers prevent upcoming attacks and also logs inspections and firewall preventions, helping our servers in daily life by protecting them from advanced cyber attacks. With the help of Application Control, we first scan the inventory of our applications that are installed on the server. After that, we get a scanned and checked inventory where all the executable files of the servers are present with the help of hashes. By putting application control in lockdown mode, all the applications that pre-exist in the file will execute at any time. However, when a new file or new update comes to the server, it will be denied due to the lockdown policy. If any attack comes, the new hashes will be found and blocked, making it a very good feature of Trend Micro Deep Security.
