Fastly is announcing the end of life (EOL) schedule for our Fastly WAF (Legacy and WAF 2020). This will allow us to focus more of our resources on the replacement product, the Fastly Next-Gen WAF, which is an enhanced offering.

We’re looking forward to helping you transition to this product as soon as you are able.

  • The official EOL for the Fastly WAF is April 30th, 2023 at 00:00 UTC.

The product will continue to be supported until this date.

We’re happy to help you get you started with a proof-of-concept (POC) evaluation of our Next-Gen WAF so you can see how the two solutions compare. To get started, contact us via email at waftransition@fastly.com.

Fastly is aware of an expected critical vulnerability the OpenSSL project is expected to disclose in the near future. We are studying the currently available information surrounding this vulnerability and do not currently believe that Signal Sciences is vulnerable. We will continue to monitor as additional information is released and will provide our customers with more information as available.
