Web applications and APIs are critical parts of your attack surface, but managing WAFs has never been easy. False positives, rule tuning, risks of production outages, and log analysis - all of this work has made WAF historically difficult to operationalize.Well, that time is over. Meet Impart’s WAF Squad - a five-member squad of AI assistants superheroes dedicated to making web application security not just manageable, but downright fun!In this blog post, you’ll see why these Assistants aren’t just toys —they’re here to revolutionize how you protect your apps and data - IN PRODUCTION.

2025 will be the year of the futurist. I never thought that I'd be writing a blog post about AI and robotics at this point in my career, but technology has advanced so much in the lat 12 months setting up 2025 to be a landmark year in terms of the tech industry. Self driving cars, robots, AGI - these are all things that have a realistic chance of shipping this year which is super exciting for me as a futurist. That said, Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) agent technology, robotics, and APIs are transforming the way we live and work, but they also present new challenges for web application and API security. Traditional Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) are going to struggle to keep pace with these changes, leading to the rise of API Native WAFs and WAF Agents as superior solutions. This article will explore the new threats to WAFs in 2025.

What happens when cutting-edge technology meets the reality of securing modern applications? That’s the question our expert panel tackled in this conversation on how eBPF is reshaping application security. Moderated by Katie Norton of IDC, the discussion featured Brian Joe (Impart Security), Francesco Cipollone (Phoenix Security), and Daniel Pacak (cloud-native security consultant), who brought insights from across the security landscape.Starting with eBPF’s roots in network traffic filtering, the panel explored its evolution into a powerful tool for observability and, potentially, security. Along the way, they challenged the hype, highlighted its real-world applications, and didn’t shy away from its limitations. This wasn’t just a tech talk—it was a deep dive into what eBPF can actually deliver and where the industry still needs to innovate.

Impart Security Partnership with AWSToday, we are thrilled to announce our partnership with AWS. This collaboration brings together Impart’s advanced API security capabilities with AWS’s unmatched global scale, performance, and cloud services portfolio.Native Integration with AWS for Seamless SecurityImpart Security and AWS share a vision of enabling organizations to build, deploy, and secure modern applications with confidence. With this partnership, customers can leverage Impart Security’s robust WAF and API protection directly integrated with AWS cloud services. This ensures a streamlined experience, optimal performance, and enterprise-grade security for any application, whether it’s hosted on-premises, in hybrid environments, or across multiple public clouds.

Impart is excited to introduce Rule Test Assertions—a powerful tool for security engineers to develop and validate firewall rules with precision. Rule Test Assertions allow you to specify conditions, such as ensuring a request is blocked or an attack payload is flagged, and evaluate these conditions during rule regression testing before production deployment.

Too many cooks spoil the broth, and too many security tools overcomplicate application security efforts. Impart Security has a better idea.
