4 effective tools for protection against cyber attacks

The availability of a site or a service is crucial for everyone who sells and supports a product on the Internet. If a web resource consistently makes money, then it is at risk—either due to targeted attack from competitors or because of automatic scanning of the website for vulnerabilities which is being constantly carried out by botnets.

Market needs. We are witnessing a shift from volumetric attacks on the network equipment (L3) or connection channels (L4) to attacks at the application level (L7). They are more difficult to detect and to distinguish from legitimate traffic.

In 2017, 20 billion devices have already been connected to the Internet of things (data provided by British research company IHS Markit). And in the future, the number of devices from which attacks can be issued will only grow.

For this reason, it may not be an easy task for the means of protection against hacking and DDoS attacks to detect and prevent sophisticated attacks on web applications doing it very accurately so that legitimate users will not suffer from it.
