Web Performance Matters: Challenges, Solutions, Best Practices

Preventing data breaches and stopping malicious bots has become a top priority for many companies. Cloudflare blocks over 400 million malicious requests each day and from this we know that installing and forgetting a Web Application Firewall is no longer enough. In order to keep up, rules must not only be updated and monitored constantly, but they must also be augmented with other security services to provide an effective solution.

In this webinar you will learn:

- What are the risks of only relying on a WAF
- Why network intelligence matters when blocking the most sophisticated attacks
- Why implementing security services shouldn’t be difficult
- Why improved security doesn’t need to diminish performance

Durch die rapide Akzeptanz der Cloud werden Internetanwendungen immer komplexeren DDoS-Angriffen, versuchtem Datendiebstahl und böswilligem Bot-Traffic ausgesetzt. Der Schutz von Anwendungen gegen Attacken führt von Natur aus zu zusätzlichen Performanceeinbußen, während gleichzeitig die Erwartungen an eine schnelle Performance und eine herausragende User Experience stetig steigen. Durch den Wandel hin zur öffentlichen Cloud erweisen sich hardwarebasierte Lösungen immer häufiger als ineffizient und Kunden wenden sich Content Delivery Networks und cloudbasierten Sicherheitsdiensten zu, um damit ihre Anforderungen erfüllt zu sehen.

Dieses Webinar bietet Ihnen einen Überblick über die Lage der Cyber-Sicherheit in der DACH Region. Thematisiert werden die verschiedensten Formen, die Cyberangriffe einnehmen können, sowie passenden Schutzmechanismen, die Sie in Ihrem Unternehmen implementieren können.

Over the past decades we’ve seen advances in application deployment evolve from bare metal, virtual machines to the cloud and containerized services. While the cloud is the defacto infrastructure platform for the modern enterprise, shifts are already beginning to take place that offer hints towards the next evolution in deployment services. Developers are increasingly influencing infrastructure decisions, in need of faster deployment times and leaner capacity investments.
