Overview

Curiefense Handbook: Securing Cloud-Native Applications with Adaptive Web Application Firewall Techniques is an authoritative guide for engineers, architects, and security leaders facing the complexities of modern cloud-native environments. It opens with a clear exposition of containerized and microservices-driven architectures, lays out evolving threat models, and explains foundational principles-zero trust, security automation, and the trade-offs between open source and commercial defense solutions-so teams can build practical, context-aware protection strategies for dynamic distributed systems. The book then gives an in-depth exploration of Curiefense's architecture and operational patterns, showing how the platform integrates with Envoy Proxy, Kubernetes, and popular service meshes. Practical chapters walk through deployment models, policy engineering, and high-stakes traffic management-covering API gateway protection, east-west controls between microservices, advanced rate limiting, and defenses against the OWASP Top 10. You'll find concrete guidance on scalability, automated policy enforcement, safe rollout and rollback practices, and disaster recovery to help maintain resilience under real-world pressures. Finally, the handbook delivers hands-on advice for optimizing performance, observability, and cost, and examines advanced extensibility-from custom filters and Lua scripting to integrations with threat intelligence and automated response workflows. Real-world case studies illustrate enterprise deployments in regulated and internet-scale settings, while forward-looking analysis explores how AI and machine learning can enable adaptive, behavior-driven WAF strategies. Whether you're in DevSecOps, architecture, or security leadership, this book equips you with the tools and frameworks to protect cloud-native applications with confidence.
