  • Toughening up web and mobile application security

    In the last years, organisations with highly integrated web applications and mobile apps have been able to ride the economic upheaval caused by the pandemic better than those with a less sophisticated online
    presence.

    The reality is that web applications present too easy a vulnerability point because of what different teams do - and don’t do. In this e-guide, read more about the best practices for web application security, how to balance app innovation with app security, why API security needs to be part of your defence strategy, and what are the top tools to keep your applications safe.
