Application Firewall

Over recent years organisations have seen a significant increase in the number of web application security breaches.

These incidents are usually browser and HTTP attacks. The main aim is to manipulate application behaviour for malicious purposes and can be inclusive of an attack on your content and data to name but a few.

Sapphire recommend web application firewalls to combat these ever developing methods of intrusion.

Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) are designed to protect web-enabled applications from outside attack. While traditional firewalls address network access control, web application firewalls address the application layer by enforcing requests within application sessions.

This type of protection protects web applications against attacks such as SQL injection, cookie poisoning, parameter tampering, directory traversal, and many more.
