Ensuring web application security is increasingly important for a wide variety of industries. Protecting company data and intellectual property are priorities, but securing customer data presents a bigger challenge for industries that traditionally did not rely on web based solutions. For example, the implementation of CRM solutions in health care institutions presents an added complexity to compliance with HIPAA. Beyond the healthcare industry, as more decentralized corporate and non-corporate entities increasingly rely on web applications for day-to-day operations, protecting company and consumer data is becoming a wider issue.
An Interventionist Approach
One of the best ways of protecting your company and your customers is to stop the intrusion as it is occurring. Real-time monitoring of web application activity provides the opportunity to stop abnormal behavior immediately. AI and others solutions can offer some protection, but they require constant update to keep up with the ever increasing ingenuity of attackers. This can mean lapses in security. A real-time monitoring solution that goes step by step with the application can immediately recognize data compromises and save you from data breach.
Non-intrusive Protection
Some web application security solutions require that security mechanisms be integrated into the code you are using for the application. There are two main issues with this means of security. First, you may not have access to the code directly. Secondly, you may not be able or willing to share IP. A solution that does not require code integration is the best for these situations. You don’t have to worry about errors caused by operational conflict, nor do you have to worry about code accessibility.
Web applications can be a potential point of vulnerability for your business, but this doesn’t have to be the case. Web application security can be assured via many methods. The right solution for your company will be interventionalist and non-intrusive.
