Imperva Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) Brochure
Secure Your Applications From Within with RASP
In today’s digital landscape, applications are under constant threat from cyberattacks. Specifically, these attacks target the sensitive data your applications handle, including personally identifiable information, financial data, and intellectual property. Traditional security tools often fall short, as they rely on easily bypassed signatures and rules. However, Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) offers a new approach, embedding security directly into your applications.
In essence, RASP empowers applications to defend themselves. This innovative technology operates as a plugin within your application, securing it regardless of its deployment environment – be it on-premises, cloud-based, or containerised. Unlike traditional security measures, RASP utilises Language Theoretic Security (LANGSEC) to understand and neutralise attacks within the application’s context. Ultimately, this allows RASP to stop both known and zero-day attacks, providing your applications with default security even with existing vulnerabilities.
The benefits of RASP extend beyond just enhanced security, for example:
- Fast time to value: RASP requires no signature updates, learning modes, or external network calls. This, combined with its low resource consumption, ensures a swift implementation and minimal impact on application performance.
- Reduced vulnerability patching pressure: RASP secures applications despite latent vulnerabilities in both original and third-party software. Therefore, this allows you to address vulnerabilities on your schedule without compromising security.
- Unprecedented visibility: RASP provides in-depth insights into application attacks, events, and risks from within your applications. As a result, this contextual awareness strengthens your overall security posture. Imperva RASP is a key component of Imperva Application Security, which reduces risk while providing an optimal customer experience.
Overall, RASP is a key component of a comprehensive application security strategy. To learn more about how Imperva RASP can fortify your applications and safeguard your data, download the brochure or contact us.
