Need to setup a mobile app

i have a application ( mobile app) which will accessed through internet.

 

is the F5 is will give full guarantee, no one will hack this app , what are the prerequisite to this to be set up in f5.

 

 

 

  • Hi,

     

    Is the mobile app a web app or is it using api calls to the backend application server? Also, should users authenticate?

    I think for the first you can use IP Intelligence and Advanced WAF

    For the second, IP Intelligence, API gateway (part of AWAF and APM).

    If users need to authenticate, use APM (extra on top of IPI and AWAF).

     

    Cheers,

  • Then go for IPI, APM and AWAF.

    IPI will protect against known bot nets, anonymous proxies, etc.

    APM for authentication (so only authenticated users can access the app)

    AWAF for L7 application protection.

     

    Cheers,
