Web applications have increased vulnerability to malicious attacks. If you have a web application for your business, should you be worried? Most definitely.
Attackers don’t single out web applications. They seek loopholes in a business web application to invade one. If you have a web application that involves financial transactions like an online banking portal, or social media sharing or sharing an online email portal, and don’t have ample security measures, you are at risk. And the risk increases as malicious attackers find new ways to exploit your website. There are web security tools and firewalls (known as Web Application Firewall or WAF) to detect malicious attacks before it’s too late. There is another way to protect yourself, you can have an expert conduct a source code audit or a penetration tester who will check if your website has security weaknesses.
