A Strategic Approach to Web Application Security

Security activities historically revolved only around the most critical web applications. However, recent attacks have proven that attackers can and will target non-critical applications. In today’s landscape, attackers no longer need to breach your most critical applications in order to steal valuable information that will cause financial losses or damage your company’s reputation. Instead, we now know that in many high-profile breaches the attackers can gain a beachhead by targeting less visible, and therefore less secure, applications such as no longer used or subsidiary websites. From these sites, hackers can now compromise your underlying security infrastructure through attacks such as SQL Injection. The notion that you have full web security coverage when you protect only securing flagship applications is no longer sufficient.
