Protecting Digital Transactions with API and Web Application Security

Protecting Digital Transactions with API and Web Application Security

In this video, A10 Networks' Jamison Utter and Gary Wang discuss why a different approach to security is required beyond purely transactional-based protection and detection. They delve into how entity-based tracking helps address the challenges of legitimate-looking requests that carry malicious intent, particularly in the context of Application programming interfaces (API) security and advanced threats, such as Layer 7 DDoS attacks.

Jamison and Gary highlight the benefits of a fully integrated platform where all security components share an ordinary "hacker mind" backend for unified decision-making and correlated threat intelligence. They emphasize how a fully managed Security Operations Center (SOC) composed of security experts can proactively identify and mitigate threats, including checking for relevant CVEs, allowing security teams to shift from a reactive to a proactive stance and focus on more strategic tasks.
