Policy: Azure > CIS v5.0 > 7 - Networking Services > 7.14 - Ensure request body inspection is enabled in Azure Web Application Firewall policy on Azure Application Gateway

Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.

Level: 1

Ensure that Web Application Firewall (WAF) request body inspection is enabled on WAF policies.

WAF request body inspection examines the body of HTTP requests for malicious content such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting attacks. Without request body inspection, attacks hidden in the request body would bypass WAF protection.
