8. Discuss about Application layer security.
Application Layer Security :
Application layer security refers to methods of
protecting Web applications at the application layer (layer 7 of the
seven-layer OSI model) from malicious attacks that may expose private
information. Security is applied to the application layer specifically to
protect against unauthorized access and attacks.
Application Security Manager provides proactive application-layer protection by understanding and analyzing a user's interaction with the application firewall. Application Security Manager is automatically configured to allow only authorized application transactions, protecting networks and critical data from application attacks including hacking, cross-site scripting, and parameter tampering. Capabilities such as packet inspection and behavior analysis protect against malicious application activity, requests for restricted object and file types, known worms, and other vulnerabilities.
