How Akamai Augments Your Security Practice to Mitigate the OWASP Top 10 Risks

January 16, 2019

The OWASP Top 10 provides a list of the most common types of vulnerabilities often seen in web applications. To call out a common misperception often perpetuated by security vendors, the OWASP Top 10 does not provide a checklist of attack vectors that can be simply blocked by a web application firewall (WAF). Instead, its objective is to raise awareness about common security vulnerabilities that application developers should consider, drive that awareness across an array of development practices, and help instill a culture of secure development.
