The Future of Web App Security: Essential Considerations for WAAP Success - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

As web applications, APIs and their threats have evolved, it’s no secret that traditional WAFs have struggled to keep pace. Increasingly seen as the answer to complex and bloated WAF architecture, Web Application & API Protection (WAAP) is currently the subject of much exploration and debate. Contrary to popular belief, WAAP is not simply the next stage of WAF + API security, but a true evolution of modern application security.
