How does Cloudflare's WAF (Web Application Firewall) protect Next.js applications?

Cloudflare's WAF protects Next.js applications from common web attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and other vulnerabilities. It analyzes incoming traffic and blocks malicious requests before they reach your application. The WAF rules can be customized to provide tailored protection based on your application's specific needs and potential attack vectors. This helps to ensure the security and availability of your Next.js application.
