Integrated solution secures corporate web applications

WhiteHat Security announced the general availability of an integrated solution with F5 Networks. The new offering allows enterprises to attain expert-level Web application security and mitigate the Web application software flaws that leave corporate and customer data at risk.

Tthe companies committed to providing integration between WhiteHat Sentinel, the SaaS-based (Software-as-a-Service) website vulnerability management solution, and the F5 BIG-IP Application Security Manager (ASM) Web Application Firewall.

The joint solution combines WhiteHat Sentinel’s precise and verified vulnerability data with the immediate blocking capabilities of F5’s Application Security Manager (ASM) Web Application Firewall (WAF). Customers can confidently use their WAFs to their greatest potential-to thwart real attacks, giving developers the time needed to correct the problem, while continuing to open their websites to legitimate traffic.

WhiteHat’s on-demand vulnerability assessments also ensure an application’s security is kept up-to-date and websites are protected from the latest attacks. The solution also enables customers to achieve, and exceed, PCI 6.6 compliance-identifying vulnerabilities, blocking attacks and extending developers’ remediation window, in one turn-key solution.
