Here a few pointers that you need to look into before choosing a WAF. The first question that you need to answer is — Will one WAF protect all my business applications.

If your business intrinsically transaction oriented, this question is for you — My userbase/transaction volume is increasing progressively. Can the WAF be easily scaled up to handle varying traffic volumes.

Now that you have purchased your WAF, how much time would you require to implement it. Your third questions needs to be answered time matters. How Seamless is the installation? Will there be an application downtime?

Great, Now that you have a WAF in par with all the above requirements, here comes the fourth and deciding purchase factor — Is the WAF within my budget? Strike a balance between affordability and features. Choose with scale in mind.
