# Profiles

In a typical deployment, Reblaze performs much of its traffic evaluation according to security Profiles.

Within the Reblaze user interface, there are four sections for defining Profiles: 

1. [Profiles](https://waap.docs.link11.com/v2.12.0/product-walkthrough/security/profiles/security-profile-setup)
2. [ACL Policies](https://waap.docs.link11.com/v2.12.0/product-walkthrough/security/profiles/acl-policies)
3. [WAF/IPS Policies](https://waap.docs.link11.com/v2.12.0/product-walkthrough/security/profiles/waf-ips-policies)
4. [Custom Signature](https://waap.docs.link11.com/v2.12.0/product-walkthrough/security/profiles/custom-signature)

Before discussing each tab, it will be useful to discuss [Profile Concepts](https://waap.docs.link11.com/v2.12.0/product-walkthrough/security/profiles/profile-concepts).
