Stops attacks, protects applications and APIs
Our solutions provide comprehensive protection for your web applications and APIs, support compliance with regulatory requirements, and ensure uninterrupted operations.
CHALLENGE
In an increasingly digital world, where over 40% of all data breaches result from attacks on web applications, powerful security mechanisms are indispensable. Digital business processes are based on interconnected applications and APIs – for executives, this means rising risks to reputation and revenue; for security teams, it means a rapidly growing and hard-to-control attack surface.
SOLUTION
A WAF or WAAP acts as a barrier layer between web applications and the internet, filtering and blocking malicious traffic before it can cause harm. It is particularly effective against the Top 10 risks identified by the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP), as well as complex threats like denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and zero-day exploits.
The SES WAF forms a robust line of defense at the network perimeter for traditional applications and intercepts attacks at the first point of contact. Core WAAP, on the other hand, operates close to the application in Kubernetes and CI/CD environments, protects microservices and APIs in real time, and enables automated testing and virtual patching directly within the development process.
