What is Privileged Access Management?

The management of user access to an organization’s assets, applications, and systems is never static. Users are coming and going, different roles require different access, and for some, privileged access – elevated permissions and access capabilities granted to specific users or groups of users — is needed for mission-critical business functions.

Web Application Firewall (WAF) Best Practices For Optimal Security

Web and mobile application code protection is a must-have security control. Modern solutions such as application layer firewall help your organisation to keep those assets protected from threats like SQL injection, cross-site scripting and bot-driven attacks. This is where a Web Application Firewall (WAF) comes into the picture. A WAF has the capability of filtering, monitoring and blocking HTTP requests to protect the assets from malicious requests without affecting legitimate users.

New Spotlight Report on Healthcare Identifies the Need for a Culture of Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity is a business requirement. Taking a holistic view of cybersecurity as part of the business means that risk, budget, and innovation can achieve balance. In a global survey of 220 healthcare organizations the prevailing wisdom shows that 43% effectively align business risk appetite with cybersecurity risk management, 43% allocate cybersecurity budget to every project from the beginning, and 55% believe they can risk more with innovation because they take an adaptive approach to cybersecurity.

Securing Against Attacks: How WAF Rate Limiting Works

Rate limiting plays a major role in application security, especially when it is about defending web applications from malicious bot attacks, credential stuffing, brute force attacks and excessive API calls. Rate limiting security ensures that systems function properly without overwhelming them. It controls the number of requests a client or a specific IP address can send over a specified time period.

Addressing API Security with NIST SP 800-228

According to the Wallarm Q1 2025 ThreatStats report, 70% of all application attacks target APIs. The industry can no longer treat API security as a sidenote; it’s time to treat it as the main event. NIST seems to be on board with this view, releasing the initial public draft of NIST SP 800-228, a set of recommendations for securing APIs.
