WAF Profile

Step 2 - Create WAF profile

Now, we will create a WAF profile and associate the Adaptive Learning profiles (JuiceShop & DVWA) we created with the WAF profile.

• Access Primary FortiADC’s GUI from the console using the link provided
• Login to the FortiADC with the username admin and password fortinet
• Go to Web Application FireWall → WAF Profile
• Click on +Create New

• Name: JuiceShop
• Adaptive Learning: Select JuiceShop from the dropdown
• Click Save

• For this exercise, we will focus solely on configuring the adaptive learning module and will not configure the other WAF modules. In a production environment, however, all relevant WAF modules would be configured as needed to ensure comprehensive protection.

• After that, we will create a second WAF profile for the DVWA application

• Go to Web Application FireWall → WAF Profile

• Click on +Create New

• Name: DVWA
• Adaptive Learning: Select DVWA from the dropdown
• Click Save

• After adding them, the WAF Profile page should look like this:
