The cornerstone of a secure web architecture is a web application firewall (WAF). A WAF is essentially a web proxy that sits in front of your web application, detecting and blocking web attacks and application-layer DDoS attacks. Although some vendors focus exclusively on web API security, modern next-generation WAFs typically

The Black Hat Conference has always been a harbinger of where security is headed next. This year, predictably, the conversation is dominated by AI — AI-enhanced threats, AI-driven defenses, AI-this, AI-that. But amid all the artificial intelligence noise, I found myself pulled into a quieter, more chilling conversation — one

Application security has become a strategic issue, not just a technical one. But if the 2025 State of Application Security report is any indication, many organizations still haven’t adjusted. Most teams are overwhelmed, underfunded and often making high-stakes trade-offs without clear risk visibility. According to the survey, 62% of organizations knowingly ship

Effective security requires firewalls that do more than guard the front door. They must work across the system to detect, isolate and stop threats in real time. Protecting sensitive data is important for healthcare organizations, but it’s a task that’s getting more challenging as security threats become more sophisticated. Cybercriminals

As large language models evolve, their influence on cybersecurity is rapidly expanding, empowering defenders with unprecedented capabilities but also lowering the barrier for attackers to scale threats with speed and precision. As artificial intelligence becomes more advanced, large language models (LLMs) AI systems that can distill waves of data to
