Frequently asked questions

A Web Application Firewall (or WAF) filters, monitors and blocks website traffic to and from a website. It is differentiated from a regular firewall in that it can filter the content of specific websites, like WordPress or Joomla. Inspecting website traffic can prevent attacks stemming from website security flaws, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), file inclusion and security misconfigurations.

While a web application firewall is a proactive security solution preventing you from getting into trouble, you should check if your website is infected. If you hadn’t previously used a solution similar to Cloudbric, your website could have already been compromised. Cloudbric focuses on protection and prevention, not cleaning already compromised websites. You can have it cleaned by a reputable website developer or website cleaning service.

A cloud-based web application firewall differs significantly from an endpoint protection service, such as a security plugin for your CMS. While there may be some overlap in the protection offered, it is a good idea from a security perspective to have both installed. Security plugins often offer malware detection and removal, which is not what cloud-based WAFs are intended for.

If your primary domain is protected by Cloudbric WAF, you can secure any linked parked domain(s) with a .htaccess redirect. This will route all traffic from the parked domain to your primary domain and update the URL in the browser. For more FAQs about Cloudbric WAF, read here.
