Secure Supplier Portal Using Web Application Firewall

As organizations increasingly transition critical operations to software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications, robust security measures are essential to ensure data integrity and safeguard against cyberthreats.The web application firewalls (WAFs) have become a vital component in this defense, focusing on the application layer (Layer 7) to secure web applications by filtering, monitoring, and blocking potentially harmful HTTP/S traffic. The Oracle WAF for SaaS is an implementation of a WAF that's deployed and managed by the Oracle SaaS Cloud Security to provide a comprehensive application layer protection for the Oracle’s SaaS environments. Oracle Supplier Portal being an external facing, self service SaaS application, can now be safeguarded with WAF for extra protection against targeted attacks.

The proactive and defense-in-depth security helps to support the resilience and trustworthiness of the environments for your business.
