Web security :

These days, it’s impossible to avoid the internet when conducting business. With every member of your organisation having access to a desktop or mobile device with instant access to the web, it is important to have the correct security in place to protect your sensitive data.

Effective web security defences provide round-the-clock protection against advanced threats, whether your users are on-site or working remotely, accessing services on mobile or in the cloud. Unity provides web protection services to keep your company and employees safe when online. Our solutions can be deployed via the cloud or on-premises as a software or a virtual appliance.

Web Security protects the visitors from the below mentioned points –

  • Stolen Data: Cyber-criminals frequently hacks visitor’s data that is stored on a website like email addresses, payment information, and a few other details.
  • Phishing schemes: This is not just related to email, but through phishing, hackers design a layout that looks exactly like the website to trick the user by compelling them to give their sensitive details. 
  • Session hijacking: Certain cyber attackers can take over a user’s session and compel them to take undesired actions on a site.
  • Malicious redirects. Sometimes the attacks can redirect visitors from the site they visited to a malicious website.
  • SEO Spam. Unusual links, pages, and comments can be displayed on a site by the hackers to distract your visitors and drive traffic to malicious websites.

 


 

WAF security :

A WAF or Web Application Firewall helps protect web applications by filtering and monitoring HTTP traffic between a web application and the Internet. It typically protects web applications from attacks such as cross-site forgery, cross-site-scripting (XSS), file inclusion, and SQL injection, among others.

By deploying a WAF in front of a web application, a shield is placed between the web application and the Internet. While a proxy server protects a client machine’s identity by using an intermediary, a WAF is a type of reverse-proxy, protecting the server from exposure by having clients pass through the WAF before reaching the server.

What are network-based, host-based, and cloud-based WAFs?

A WAF can be implemented one of three different ways, each with it’s own benefits and shortcomings:

  • A network-based WAF is generally hardware-based. Since they are installed locally they minimize latency, but network-based WAFs are the most expensive option and also require the storage and maintenance of physical equipment. 
  • A host-based WAF may be fully integrated into an application’s software. This solution is less expensive than a network-based WAF and offers more customizability.
  • Cloud-based WAFs offer an affordable option that is very easy to implement; they usually offer a turnkey installation that is as simple as a change in DNS to redirect traffic. Cloud-based WAFs can also offer a solution that is consistently updated to protect against the newest threats without any additional work or cost on the user’s end.

WAF Security protects the visitors from the below mentioned points –

Your website or web application’s security depends on the level of protection tools that have been equipped and tested on it. There are a few major threats to security which are the most common ways in which a website or web application becomes hacked. Some of the top vulnerabilities for all web-based services include:

  • SQL injection
  • Password breach
  • Cross-site scripting
  • Data breach
  • Remote file inclusion
  • Code injection

Preventing these common threats is the key to making sure that your web-based service is practicing the best methods of security.
