Web Application Firewall

Web applications are increasingly becoming the target of attacks. Hackers try to penetrate the company network via applications in order to spy or thieve data. Consequently, it is important for you as a company to protect not only your network itself, but also your web applications.

Conventional firewall solutions are no longer a match for sophisticated attack methods. The consequence would be constant monitoring of the web application for weaknesses followed by adaptation of the protection system. However, this solution is very expensive due to the ongoing development effort.

The alternative: the web appplication firewall solution by secunet

secunet has developed a convenient solution for the protection of web applications. Instead of integrating a security system within the web application, our solution is installed as an access control upstream of the applications. It checks all accesses and connections to the application level. In this way, an attacker has no direct contact with the web application: Only users and data traffic which have been checked and authorised are allowed through to the web application.

The advantages of our solution at a glance:

• Simple integration
• Extended monitoring and reporting concepts
• Detailed analysis and evaluation opportunities
• Comprehensive protection of web applications
