Web Application Firewall OWASP Top 10, without the regex pain.
A next-gen WAF service for startups. Karbon blocks SQL injection, XSS, and the full OWASP Top 10 with ML-augmented signatures — managed rules out of the box, custom rules without writing brittle regular expressions.
OWASP Top 10 coverage
Injection, broken auth, XSS, SSRF, and the rest — covered by managed rulesets that update as new techniques emerge.
ML-augmented signatures
Static signatures miss obfuscated payloads. Karbon layers machine-learning scoring on top to catch variants signatures alone would let through.
Custom rules, no regex
Write rules in plain conditions — path, method, header, geo, rate. No PCRE, no escaping nightmares.
Virtual patching
Shield a vulnerable endpoint at the edge the moment a CVE drops, buying your team time to ship the real fix.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a WAF?
- A Web Application Firewall inspects HTTP requests and blocks malicious ones — SQL injection, cross-site scripting, path traversal — before they reach your application. Karbon runs as a reverse proxy, so protection is inline with zero code changes.
- Do I need to write regex rules?
- No. Managed rulesets cover the OWASP Top 10 automatically. Custom rules use plain conditions (path, method, header, geo, rate) instead of regular expressions.
- Is it suitable for early-stage startups?
- Yes — Karbon is built as a startup WAF service. Sensible defaults work out of the box, pricing scales with traffic, and there is no professional-services contract required to turn it on.
