Can cside work alongside my existing WAF without conflicts?

We monitor an entirely different dimension of the application stack; hence, there is no interference. Our platform co-exists with your existing security solutions. Your main website inbound traffic is continuously protected by your WAF, while cside focuses on client-side JavaScript security. Your WAF handles incoming requests, while we handle outgoing requests from browsers to third-party scripts. We can assure that there is no conflict or overlap in functionality.

Does cside's JavaScript proxy add latency like a WAF does to all traffic?

cside only adds 8-20 milliseconds to specific dynamic JavaScript files we proxy, with static scripts cached for faster loading.

How does cside's approach compare to the complexity of managing a WAF?

cside is much simpler because we're only handling JavaScript files, not your entire web infrastructure.

What happens if cside's proxy goes down? Will my website break?

Your website will continue working as intended with our fail-open design and 99.99% uptime SLA.

Will cside's proxy approach break my website like a misconfigured WAF might?

No, your website will continue working normally as we only intercept third-party scripts with fail-open design.
