Application Security for Web
Protect the web apps you create. Monitor those apps to discover attacks. Automatically react to app attacks.
Obfuscation, threat monitoring, and runtime application self-protection for web apps written in just about every language for just about every browser
What is Web Application Security?
Web application security protects browser endpoints against cyber security threats by obfuscating client-side code.
Web application security refers to the protection of browser endpoints against attack from Magecart and other formjacking-style attacks, malicious browser extensions, banking trojans, malvertisements, and other cyber security threats. When addressed properly—including JavaScript protection, threat detection, and limiting API connections to known good sites, along with defensive measures that can shut down web app functionality in the event of an attack—effective web application security enables customers to detect and protect against active threats, protecting businesses and consumers from data breaches and financial losses.
Web applications have evolved—so must security
The only constant in the threat landscape is change. Network and web app firewalls are essential to preventing access to assets that “live” inside the security perimeter. Mobile and cloud technology, however, have put many assets, apps, and tech outside of the security perimeter.
Client-side web apps open up new business opportunities— both legitimate and illegitimate. Organizations are now increasingly relying on client-side apps to deliver faster and richer experiences to their customers. However, the increasing size of the client-side app is also increasing the size of the attack surface. Moving important components to the client-side of applications (that is, outside the protection of traditional network security) increases the risk of attacks such as formjacking, Document Object Model (DOM) tampering, session abuse, and overlay attacks.
Many organizations still believe a web application firewall (WAF) is all that’s needed to protect web apps from security threats. In fact, WAFs are an important but not comprehensive part of the solution. Traditional security techniques such as WAFs are unable to stop web app attacks that originate at the browser, outside the purview of network security.
As threat actors continue pushing boundaries in identifying new attack vectors, organizations must respond in kind to ensure critical assets and data are being properly and fully protected.
