Five common application-level attacks and the countermeasures to beat them

This on-demand webcast reviews five of the most common attacks against applications: active content, cross-site scripting, denial of service and SYN attacks, SQL injection attacks and malicious bots. For each, our presenter, Michael Cobb, explains how they work, the damage they're capable of doing and how pervasive they are. He also arms you with:
  • Specific countermeasures for each of these attacks
  • The security policies and security defense technologies worth considering for safeguarding applications against each attack
  • How to improve incident response in the event of an attack
  • A quick overview of other, less common (but potentially damaging) application attacks that you need to be aware of
