Starting today, AWS WAF is available in the AWS Asia Pacific (New Zealand) Region.

AWS WAF is a web application firewall that helps you protect your web application resources against common web exploits and bots that can affect availability, compromise security, or consume excessive resources. With AWS WAF, you can control access to your content. Based on conditions that you specify, such as the IP addresses that requests originate from or the values of query strings, your protected resource responds to requests either with the requested content, with an HTTP 403 status code (Forbidden), or with a custom response.
