Case Study: Prezi strengthens web application security and streamlines developer response with Fastly Next-Gen WAF

Empowering a Cloud-Based Platform with Power Rules for Security and Developers

Prezi, a cloud-based presentation platform with over 100 million users, faced the challenge of replacing a labor-intensive open-source security tool. They needed an enterprise-grade web application firewall, specifically the Fastly Next-Gen WAF from Signal Sciences, that provided automated, accurate protection without the noise of hundreds of regex signature alerts.

The Signal Sciences solution provided immediate value through its Power Rules, which offered application-specific protection and meaningful alerting. The WAF's flexible architecture integrated easily into Prezi's infrastructure and SIEM, saving the security and operations teams time by reducing manual work. This empowered Prezi's developers to react faster to threats and improved their overall reaction to DoS and DDoS scenarios.
