Security and load balancing for WebApps and APIs at a lower entry-level price.
F5 optimises API security through universal observability, AI/ML-supported dynamic detection, context-based visualisations and comprehensive protective measures.
Risks and complexity are reduced and a scalable and resilient app and API security situation is created. F5 solutions maintain bot resilience and automatically adapt to new attack methods - without sacrificing usability.
The Distributed Cloud Platform is that famous F5 quality as a cloud-native SaaS suite, fully integrated via a single policy engine and management console. F5 Distributed Cloud starts at a quarter of the hardware-based F5 BIG-IP price.
Typical KRITIS use cases for the F5 solution are
App to app communication such as in the public sector between an MRT and a software or the road networks with digital signposting of the public sector
Edge computing, e.g. mobile devices for patient data in nursing care
Webshops including all payment functions and connection to external payment service providers
Appointment booking tools for customers
