A service acts as an intermediary between the client (browsers) and the destination web application. The service is configured with a Virtual IP (VIP) address and a TCP port. Traffic arriving at the designated VIP and port is validated, subjected to security checks configured for the service, and then passed to one of the real servers associated with that service.
The service can filter out any suspicious activity and identify malware in the request to the web application server. You can customize several security settings in the service to suit your business requirements.
