Web vulnerabilities and exploits have become more risky to enterprises that are accessible on the internet. Web Application Firewall is required to mitigate various threats, however historically enterprises bear expensive hardware on-premises to protect web server from web attacks. Why cloud-based WAF? There are acquisitions occurring that certain web servers are not protected. This is because protected targets are not being on the same premises as the physical WAF. The enterprises are moving their operations to the cloud. The boundaries of physical WAF’s protection are limited to cover all users in today’s modern network environment. Cloud-based WAF enables enterprises to protect web servers across a broad spectrum regardless of locations. Cloud-based WAF performs the filtering before the traffic reaches to web server. Web servers are protected by cloud-based WAF to change DNS records directed toward cloud-based WAF address. All traffic is diverted to the cloud-based WAF, filter...

Attackers attempt to compromise your website through malvertising. It becomes very poplar by using third-party ad networks to seed malicious code in legitimate website. What is malvertising? It distributes malicious code by using online advertising. When you click on an ad or access malicious website, hidden malicious code directs your system to criminal servers.

Enterprises use increasingly in developing web-based application that process supply management, customer supports and sales activities. Web acceleration feature enables to speed up the transfer of content between web servers and client browser and enables your web servers to handle more client requests.   There are several ways to accelerate web traffic; http optimization, caching, compression and SSL/TLS processing. 1. HTTP Optimization Enterprises is widely used to accelerate web traffic through a load balancer or reverse proxy server to optimize HTTP traffic as it flows between client and backed servers. 2. Compression Web acceleration feature can compress large files to reduce transfer times. 3. SSL/TLS Processing Typical components can be compressed for faster loading web page text and web page elements. Some online data, like secure pages cannot be compressed that utilize secure socket Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption. 4. Cachi...

Enterprises are required to manage private PII appropriately and protect it from cyber threats, loss and unauthorized access. When enterprises misuse or lose sensitive data...

  Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) is unquestionably increasing rapidly. SSL and TLS is an encryption standard used to secure internet communication between network application and client. SSL uses a combination of public key and symmetric key encryption to secure a connection between network application and client, typically a web or mail server and client system over the internet. SSL provides encryption and authentication process when server and client send data between them. In order to keep sensitive data secure, SSL establishes an encrypted link and data become unreadable to other after SSL certificates were used. Most enterprises and organizations will continue to increase using SSL traffic due to growing data security. As IT compliance concerns, enterprises and organizations are utilizing more SSL traffic. Cybercriminals are using SSL encryption traffic to attack enterprise. Originally enterprises use SSL traffic to protect sensitive...

People type recognizable names into a web browser to browse to a website on Internet. However, each site is represented by IP number.

  Have you hear about OWASP Top 10? OWASP stands for Open Web Application Security Project which is an organization to dedicate to develop and maintain applications. OWASP announces stop 10 security issues that we should concern as priority application threats. There are top 10 security issue of application as follows; 1. Injection Injection flaws such as SQL, OS, LDAP, Xpath or NoSQL occur when an application sends untrusted data to interpreter as part of a command or query. The attacker sends simple text-based attacks that exploit the syntax of interpreter and trick the interpreter into accessing protected data without authorization and executing unintended commands. Injection impact to loss data and deny the service. 2. Broken Authentication and Session Management As authentication and session management are often not implemented correctly, attacker impersonates users’ identities by exploiting password, keys and session ID. Once account is attacked successful, the...

Proxy is a server which acts as an intermediary between client and other web server. A client connects to the proxy server to request the service such as documents, files, web pages and links that are available from other servers. A proxy server evaluates the request and connects to client after evaluation and simplification. In the presence of a proxy server, client and server do not communicate directly between them and proxy server handles the request. The proxy server is used for various purpose like sharing internet connection on a local area network, implementing access control, blocking malicious website access, hide IP address and monitoring data flow. As web threats are increased, business enterprises are required to protect critical information from various attacks. Hackers get into business server and steal critical information.
