From SQL injection attacks to cleverly executed distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, attackers are enjoying success in areas where a WAF would otherwise stop their progression. But before you go out and buy a WAF service, here are five things you need to know. 5 Things You Need to Know about a Web Application Firewall What is a WAF? At its core, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) is responsible for inspecting the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) request and responding based on predefined rules;processing preset actions against questionable HTTP/HTTPS requests identified during the inspection phase or the HTTP/HTTPS connection validity check; logging the malicious HTTP/HTTPS requests identified during the inspection; andmanaging visits to websites. Generally speaking, WAFs detect and protect web applications from attacks that try to exploit vulnerabilities. WAFs serve as a way to enhance the security perimeter by providing an additional barrier between attackers and your application layer.

  • Importance of Web Application Firewall Technology for Protecting Web-Based Resources
    Importance of Web Application Firewall Technology For Protecting Web-based Resources Importance of Web Application Firewall Technology for Protecting Web-based Resources By Andrew J. Hacker, CISSP, ISSAP Senior Security Analyst, ICSA Labs January 10, 2008 ICSA Labs 1000 Bent Creek Blvd., Suite 200 Mechanicsburg, PA 17050 Copyright © 2008 Cybertrust, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Page 1 of 7 Importance of Web Application Firewall Technology For Protecting Web-based Resources Importance of Web Application Firewall Technology for Protecting Web-based Resources By Andrew J. Hacker, CISSP, ISSAP Introduction Web-based applications and services have changed the landscape of information delivery and exchange in today’s corporate, government, and educational arenas. Ease of access, increased availability of information, and the richness of web services have universally increased productivity and operational efficiencies. These increases have led to heavier reliance on web-based services and greater integration of internal information systems and data repositories with web-facing applications. While motivations of attackers against a victim’s corporate and organizational assets remain the same (financial, IP, identity theft, services disruption, or denial of service, for example), web applications enable a whole new class of vulnerabilities and exploit techniques such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and cross-site request forgery, to name a few.1 The complexity of services, potential severity of breaches, and mounting sophistication of attacks requires additional functionality beyond the capability of traditional network-based security products. The emergence of dedicated web application firewall technology provides a comprehensive and focused solution to help increase the security of web-based services and protect valuable information assets.

  • Health Information Security in the Age of Ehrs and the 3Rd Platform Learn More White Paper
    Health Information Security in the age of EHRs and the 3rd Platform White Paper Barracuda • Health Information Security in the age of EHRs and the 3rd Platform Introduction The last time Health Information Technology (HIT) changed this quickly was when barcoding was introduced to HIT networks in the 1990s. While the federal government pushes adoption of Electronic Health Records (EHRs), patient engagements are migrating to smartphones, tablets, and social media. Healthcare providers are also using cloud computing to analyze “big data” collected about treatments and procedures. Together “big connectivity” and cloud computing along with social media are being hailed as the “3rd Platform;” the successors to mainframe and client-server computing architectures. The challenge is how to add EHRs and 3rd Platform services to HIT mainstay services like email, Web access, and other applications while maintaining privacy for HIPAA compliance in today’s high-risk environment. As evidence of today’s risk, the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office for Civil Rights reported that 2016 was a record-breaking year, with more data breaches reported since they started publishing healthcare data breach summaries in 2009.1 Since 2002, Barracuda Networks’ strategy has been to protect and simplify diversifying IT infrastructures by converging security, performance optimization, and data loss prevention (DLP) features in solutions that are easy to deploy and manage. This white paper deals with the security and DLP issues facing IT professionals in the healthcare industry and how Barracuda technology addresses these issues. EHRs: Security, Storage, and Compliance Three issues to consider when you deploy EHRs are: avoiding data breaches by blocking cyber- attacks on the EHR application, demonstrating “meaningful use” of EHRs for certification, and providing safe, economical backups for a fast-growing volume of EHR data.
