WEB APPLICATION AND API PROTECTION CAPABILITIES: A Checklist for Financial Institutions
Financial institutions increasingly rely on web applications and APIs, which expands the attack surface and introduces new security risks. A comprehensive Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) solution is essential to provide visibility, detect threats, and adapt defenses.
This white paper provides a detailed checklist to assist financial institutions in evaluating and implementing an effective WAAP strategy. Key capabilities highlighted include:
- Scalability and Performance: Ensuring the solution handles varying traffic loads without compromising performance.
- Comprehensive Protection: Defending against DDoS attacks, OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, and bot-driven exploits.
- API Security: Providing visibility into API traffic, detecting anomalies, and enforcing security policies to protect sensitive data.
- Flexible Management: Offering centralized control with customizable policies to adapt to evolving security needs.
- Compliance Support: Assisting in meeting regulatory requirements through detailed logging and reporting features.
By adopting a robust WAAP solution, financial institutions can enhance their security posture, protect critical assets, and maintain customer trust in an increasingly complex digital landscape.
