WAFs protect the network perimeter and monitor, filter, or block HTTP traffic. Compared to intrusion detection systems (IDS/IPS), WAFs are focused on the application traffic. For most enterprises, using a RASP solution would mean running multiple agents on their production systems, potentially creating risk due to incompatibilities.
