# 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:&#x20;

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

![Security Profiles Screen](/files/-LvB0gtuTkglA3-CgacR)

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