ASM signature update

A device-wide F5 attack signature update across the whole ASM module. A signature update lands on every policy on the box, not just the ones under management, so this is priced per module, not per policy. We review the current signature state first and confirm the price.

What's included

A complete package.

A signature update is a device-level job, not a policy-level one. When the update is imported it lands on every policy on the F5 ASM module, so before anything enforces we check that every policy stages new signatures, otherwise new signatures jump straight to blocking and break production. That is why this is priced per module (a base of £1,250 plus £50 per policy on the box), and why we review the current signature state before we quote. If the module has not been updated for six months, a year, or as we have seen, three years, there is a large backlog of signatures to import and a correspondingly large amount of learning-suggestion review and false-positive tuning, so the price can move up or down against the base. Once staged and tuned, we promote to blocking and hand over a before/after note.

From £1,250 · Per ASM module, + £50 / policy
Scope: Priced per F5 ASM module (the device), not per policy: a signature update affects every policy on the box. Base £1,250 plus £50 per policy on the module. The final price depends on how far behind the signatures are; a module that is months or years out of date carries far more staged signatures, learning suggestions and false positives to work through, so the price can move up or down against the base.
  • Priced per ASM module: base plus a per-policy unit
  • Current signature state reviewed and the price confirmed up front
  • Every policy on the module checked for safe staging before import
  • Signatures applied, held in staging and reviewed against live traffic
  • Learning suggestions and false positives worked through, then promoted to blocking with a before/after note
In practice

When ASM signature update gets booked.

Illustrative examples, not a fixed list. If your job is the same shape, it fits.

Kept current

A module reviewed on a regular cadence, so each update brings a small, manageable set of new signatures to stage and tune.

A year behind

A sizeable backlog of signatures imported in one controlled pass, with the extra learning suggestions and false positives worked through carefully.

Three years behind

A large backlog: every policy on the module checked for safe staging first, then signatures staged and tuned in stages before promotion.
