Description
What would you like to be added or improved?
Description:
Current Situation:
The demo is currently accessible via https://demo.waf.chaitin.com:9443. However, many organizations block URLs that include non-standard port numbers like 9443 for security reasons.
Proposed Change:
Change the demo URL to https://demo.waf.chaitin.com, removing the port number to utilize the standard HTTPS port (443).
Reasoning:
Using standard ports (such as 443 for HTTPS) ensures that the demo is accessible within corporate environments that restrict access to non-standard ports. This change will enhance the accessibility of the demo for a broader range of users by adhering to common security policies implemented by companies.
Benefits:
Increased Accessibility: Users within organizations that block non-standard ports will be able to access the demo without issues.
Improved User Experience: Simplifies the URL, making it easier to remember and use.
Enhanced Security Compliance: Aligns with common security practices enforced by many companies.
Why is it needed?
Many enterprises enforce strict network security measures that limit access to only well-known ports. By adopting the standard HTTPS port, the demo will be more compatible with these security configurations, reducing barriers for potential users and stakeholders.
