Ponemon Institute Research: The State of Web Application Firewalls


The Ponemon Institute recently surveyed 595 organizations and discovered that 65% experienced successful application-layer attacks that bypassed their existing web access firewall (WAF). This new research, sponsored by Cequence Security, reveals a concerning trend – WAFs are failing to provide effective protection against application-layer attacks.

This new report sheds light on:
  • Why most IT security pros are dissatisfied with their WAF
  • The security and resource costs of a traditional WAF
  • What features leading IT security pros desire in a WAF
  • Best-practice guidance on addressing application security with WAFs
