| | | |
− | Identifying web application vulnerabilities has traditionally been achieved by running vulnerability scanners. While these tools can been effective, they have some deficiencies, mainly that they are simply snap-shots in time and they often add network load on the web application. Web application firewalls can help to detect application defects in applications by monitoring the application as it is used. In this presentation, Ryan Barnett, Director of Application Security at Breach, will discuss how deploying a web application firewall can provide more value beyond simply protecting applications from attack.

− | Due to their strategic placement within the application's communication stream, web application firewalls, can provide a great deal of visibility into how an application is used and detect defects by watching the interaction between the application and a client.

| |
− | * Application defect detection - scanning vs. monitoring usage
| |
− | * Enhancements for the application development lifecycle - more comprehensive application assessment than simulated tests
