It’s impossible to ensure all web applications on your system are free of vulnerabilities at any given time. Whether it’s a previously undiscovered vulnerability, a vulnerability waiting to be patched, an out-of-support system, or some other issue, vulnerabilities are there, waiting to be exploited. Syscraft’s Application Firewalls protect web-based applications from attacks that target vulnerabilities.
When a secure web application begins to grow, new servers need to be added to handle the user capacity and encryption needs. When you reach this point, new problems arise: something needs to control the additional servers and servers can only handle limited amounts of secure traffic encryption and decryption.
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks continue to be the top threat to IT security. DDoS attacks targeting the application layer tend to be small and hard to detect, but a successful attack will still shut down your vital services.
