AWS Firewall Manager Introduces Retrofitting for WAF Management

/ 1 min read

🔄 AWS Firewall Manager Introduces Retrofitting for Enhanced WAF Management. AWS Firewall Manager now allows organizations to retrofit existing web access control lists (web ACLs) with centralized security policies, enabling better integration with application teams’ configurations. This feature addresses challenges such as compatibility with infrastructure as code (IaC) tools, existing WAF rule migration, and application-specific rule complexity. When retrofitting is enabled, Firewall Manager adds defined rules to existing web ACLs without altering them, allowing teams to maintain their custom configurations. The retrofitting process ensures compliance with security policies while preventing increased costs associated with shared web ACLs. This enhancement aims to streamline WAF management while preserving the flexibility of application teams in managing their security configurations.
