Description
The University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) is seeking proposals from qualified vendors to provide a cloud-based Web Application Firewall (WAF) solution and related implementation services. The selected solution will replace UNCW's existing on-premises F5 environment and provide web application security, load balancing, traffic management, and related functionality for university-hosted services. UNCW currently utilizes an F5 platform to support multiple web applications and services through reverse proxy, load balancing, TLS termination, and web application firewall capabilities. As part of its technology modernization efforts, UNCW intends to migrate these services to a cloud-based platform that enhances security, improves resiliency, and reduces reliance on on-premises infrastructure. The University seeks a solution that provides robust web application protection, supports both on-premises and cloud-hosted applications, integrates with existing security monitoring tools, and offers a streamlined administrative experience. The selected vendor will be responsible for supporting a proof of concept, implementation, migration planning, testing, training, and transition to production operations.
