The Web Application Firewall (WAF) supports a variety of security standards and frameworks:
OWASP Top 10: Directly referenced by WAFs to protect against the most common web application security risks.
PCI DSS: WAFs are specifically referenced in Section 6.6 of the PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) to help protect payment systems.
HIPAA: WAFs are not explicitly referenced in HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) regulations.
NIST: The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) guidelines do not require WAFs to specifically address their security requirements but recommend network protections that can be facilitated by WAFs.
