The Ultimate Guide To The OWASP 21 Top Automated Threats and Security Capabilities To Stop Them
There are good bots that help online businesses improve search engine rankings and provide a better customer experience. Then there are malicious bots that have evolved their evasion techniques to the extent traditional security solutions such as web application firewall (WAF) and CAPTCHAs are rendered ineffective in detecting them.
From web scraping and bypassing CAPTCHA challenges to engaging in nefarious activities like spamming, account takeover, credential stuffing, sniping and carding, automated bots are the most preferred tool used by attackers, fraudsters, competitors and other adversaries. The actors behind these fraudulent activities keep improving the automated programs to create even more advanced persistent bots that can accurately mimic human behavior to evade detection when they attack.
The rise in automated bot attacks on web applications moved the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) to create the OWASP Top 21 Automated Threats To Web Applications. It’s designed to allow organizations to better understand and respond to the increased threats from automated bots.
Based on the OWASP list, this guide provides an overview of each automated threat and mitigation capabilities that a dedicated bot management solution should provide to stop them.
