F5 added anomaly detection and agentic threat intelligence to its AI-powered WAF, enabling virtual patch enforcement against exploits within minutes.
F5 announced enhancements to F5 WAF for Distributed Cloud, adding anomaly detection that builds per-application traffic baselines and agentic threat intelligence built on technology from the Fletch acquisition. The AI-powered WAF scores each request in real time with a neural network risk engine, and internal testing claims 98% threat detection efficacy with false positives reduced to 1%. Automated virtual patching via Distributed Cloud Web App Scanning extends to F5 WAF for BIG-IP, letting teams block actively exploited vulnerabilities at the request level in minutes; agentic features are rolling out over coming months.
