Description

Protect your web applications from common web exploits

Main information

It is also used to identify how Amazon CloudFront distributions and application load balancers respond to web requests based upon specific conditions. The services work together to filter both HTTP and HTTPS by distinguishing between legitimate and harmful inbound requests that will then either be allowed or blocked with an HTTP 403 error code which is a forbidden error. For clarity, a web application can be simply defined as a remote program that is accessed over the internet via a web browser. More on <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5e4BUKeGZNk>
