About Breach Security
Founded in 2004, Breach Security, Inc. is the leading provider of real-time, continuous web application integrity and security that protects sensitive web-based information. Breach Security's products protect web applications from hacking attacks and data leakage, and ensure applications operate as intended.
Are You Fully Protected?
While vital to your business, web applications can also be a liability to your company. Web applications are difficult to secure for many reasons:
- Web application security is not incorporated into the software development lifecycle
- Hard to balance timely web application updates with the necessary security measures and testing
- Applications are often composite applications, developed using different tools, databases and operating systems making connections between modules insecure
- Too much code and too few skilled developers to fix web application issues while continuing to work on new releases
Web Application Firewalls: A Complete Security Strategy
If the network security solutions your company has established are still missing targeted application attacks, consider implementing a web application firewall. This can insure customised protection for each web application and gives your security team a detailed understanding of the application(s) they are protecting. Eliminate communication gaps between your security and application development teams.
And with its real-time, continuous protection, there is no longer a need to take your application offline if vulnerability is found. A web application firewall can keep your business going.
