Securing Your Web Applications
Advances in web technologies coupled with a changing
business environment, mean that web applications
are becoming more prevalent in corporate, public
and Government services today. Although web applications
can provide convenience and efficiency, there
are also a number of new security threats, which
could potentially pose significant risks to an
organisation's information technology infrastructure
if not handled properly.
Today traditional network security measures and
technologies may not be sufficient to safeguard
web applications from new threats since attacks
are now specifically targeting security flaws
in the design of web applications. New security
measures, both technical and administrative, need
to be implemented alongside the development of
web applications.
