Internet threats are widely varied and multi-layered. As these threats evolve, organizations find that traditional firewalls lack the intelligence and the scalability needed to stay effective and responsive under DDoS and a whole range of other sophisticated attacks. The result is a failure to protect the business from loss of critical Internet data center services. | Internet threats are widely varied and multi-layered.

Internet threats are widely varied and multi-layered. As these threats evolve, organizations find that traditional firewalls lack the intelligence and the scalability needed to stay effective and responsive under DDoS and a whole range of other sophisticated attacks. The result is a failure to protect the business from loss of critical Internet data center services.
F5 offers a native, high performance firewall solution that protects the entire infrastructure and scales to perform under the most demanding conditions. F5 provides the intelligence and flexibility you need to stay secure in the ever-changing and increasingly threatening landscape. You get a common platform to deliver applications and significantly improve responsiveness to rapidly evolving threats.
In addition, F5 provides a flexible, certified web application firewall and comprehensive, policy-based web application security to address emerging threats at the application level. This combination significantly reduces the risk of damage to intellectual property, data, and web applications. With F5, you get a complete application protection solution on a certified network firewall platform that eliminates the need for multiple appliances. This lowers maintenance and management costs, and increases the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of your applications, network, and processes. F5 brings together the network, applications, data, and users under a single security strategy that traditional firewalls and point solutions don’t offer.

April message from OWASP Los Angeles
1. Participate in Projects
OWASP is about projects. Without projects, OWASP wouldn't exist, and projects need new blood. I would like to encourage your participation in the projects. There are many projects to choose from (link below) but testing, development and code review guides are in urgent need of help. You don't need to be a coder to contribute.
