A recent discovery by Zafran.io reveals critical vulnerabilities in web application firewalls (WAFs) from providers like Akamai and Cloudflare. Misconfigured origin validation allows attackers to bypass WAF protections and directly access backend servers, creating opportunities for data breaches, DDoS attacks, and more. While most WAF vendors offer IP whitelisting as a solution, implementing it presents significant challenges such as.
As we enter 2025, the cybersecurity statistics from 2024 and previous years reveal a critical landscape of evolving threats, from a surge in vulnerabilities to increasingly sophisticated cyber-attacks. This blog delves into the latest cybersecurity data, exploring trends like zero-day exploits, and unpatched vulnerabilities, to help you craft a proactive strategy for 2025 cybersecurity challenges.

Radware’s Cloud WAF provides robust, enterprise-level web application security. It adapts to changing threats and applications automatically, offering full protection against the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities.
We witness a sharp surge in website security risks, as highlighted in the latest State of Application Security 2023 Annual Report. AppTrana WAAP blocked over 6 billion attacks across 1400+ websites under its protection. Every website is at risk, regardless of whether it is a simple blog, a portfolio showcase, a small cupcake business, or a dynamic e-commerce platform. Why would someone hack my website? How do hackers check if my website is hackable? How do websites get hacked?

A critical vulnerability, CVE-2024-9264, has been discovered in Grafana, the open-source analytics and visualization platform widely used by organizations worldwide. According to Netlas.io, over 100,000 Grafana instances may be vulnerable globally, with nearly 19,000 in the U.S. alone. This vulnerability poses significant risks, enabling remote code execution (RCE), allowing attackers to execute arbitrary system commands and access sensitive files.
The OWASP Top 10 is a research-based document that raises awareness among developers, organizations, and security professionals on the most critical security risks facing web applications. The latest is the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities 2021, released in September 2021 after a 4-year gap. In this article, the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities 2021 are explained in detail, along with ways to mitigate each.

From GDPR in Europe to CCPA in California, compliance officers and CISOs face a deluge of regulations, standards, and requirements. With every country, industry, and regulator demanding different levels of control, how can teams manage these complex requirements efficiently? In a recent virtual panel discussion, I had the opportunity to join Ashish Tandon, Founder & CEO of Indusface, where I highlighted essential strategies for CISOs to navigate these compliance complexities efficiently.
Security testing aims to find vulnerabilities and security weaknesses in the software/ application. By subjecting the software or application to controlled security scenarios, cyber security testing ensures that the system is adequately prepared to withstand attacks and unforeseen failures. Security experts and testers use different types of security testing to identify potential threats, measure the probability of exploitation of vulnerabilities, and gauge the overall risks facing the software/ app.
A reverse proxy is a server that sits between the client and the origin server. It accepts requests from clients and forwards them to the appropriate server. It also receives responses from the server and sends them back to the client. A reverse proxy is an essential component of web application infrastructure, providing a layer of abstraction between clients and origin servers to help optimize traffic routing and improve performance and security.

Overview: Picture this: Your website included a 3rdparty component (such as a WordPress plug-in), and hackers used that as a backdoor to infiltrate your systems, which were secure on their own. This is a supply chain attack. Pollyfillio attack is a recent example of this where 100,000 websites were impacted last month. In this webinar, Vivekanand Gopalan (VP of Products - Indusface) and Phani Deepak Akella (VP of Marketing - Indusface) discuss strategy and tactics to protect your applications from supply chain attacks.

Execution of malicious scripts was responsible for 52% of 75,000 cyber incidents. These scripts are typically used to harvest data from customer-facing websites and APIs. 60%+ such attacks target SMEs. An alarming situation when you consider the limited resource and tool budgets allocated for website and API security. A managed, enterprise-class application security offering with 24x7 SOC is, therefore, the need of the hour for SMBs.
