Applications have become an integral part of every business, today! Applications are now an interface to everything an organisation is involved with, which emphasizes the dependency of organizations on Applications. Legacy applications, once deployed stand-alone in organizations, are going online, which include web-applications like CRM, ERP, CMS, online banking, E-commerce, and so on. Today, the Web hosts infinite number of applications, majority of which are running on only a couple of protocols like HTTP and HTTPS ? making applications ?port-independent?. Along with this, with the advent of trends like BYOD and rise of mobile apps, the use of Web apps in organizations is sure to rise.
Considering the popularity of Internet applications and it?s addiction amongst users, Internet applications are becoming a favourite among attackers. Reports reveal that 80% of Web applications have a vulnerability waiting to be exploited and there have been numerous security incidents in 2012, where ?application? was the medium for attack. The security risks organizations face, because of rising use of apps in networks include malware and virus attacks, excessive bandwidth consumption and much more.
Considering the explosion of Internet applications, leading to application chaos in organization?s networks, being application-layer aware, is not an option anymore for organisations. The questions that arise are:
- Can I know & control which applications run on my network, and who uses them?
- Can I prioritize applications based on their type and business needs?
- What level of application control granularity does my existing security solution offer?
- Does my existing security offer web application protection?
- How easy it is to manage my existing security solution?
