The answer is no, because the data theft happens within your user's browser after your WAF has done its job. Credit card information collected by malicious scripts from your checkout form is sent to the attacker's server. This outbound request comes directly from the user's browser, not from your infrastructure. Your WAF only sees everything between your users and your servers, but it's blind when it comes to data exfiltration happening in real-time.
Can cside work alongside my existing WAF without conflicts?
We monitor an entirely different dimension of the application stack; hence, there is no interference.
How does cside solve the client-side blind spot that WAFs can't address?
Cside analyses every third-party script on our side before it runs, making it easy to stop attacks by analyzing JavaScript content asynchronously and hashing a list of bad scripts, preventing them from being loaded again.
Why is the browser environment invisible to WAF monitoring?
A WAF (Web Application Firewall) operates at the perimeter, analyzing traffic as it crosses between external networks and your internal network towards your web servers.
Can a WAF protect against supply chain attacks on third-party JavaScript libraries?
WAFs cannot protect against client-side supply chain attacks because they don't intercept the fetch to the 3rd party endpoint and therefore have no visibility into the JavaScript files from the 3rd party sources.
