This month we are sharing a blog from our security partner Dome9 that takes a look at the five most likely public cloud threats.

A WAF, standing for a Web Application Firewall, serves the purpose of protecting one or more web applications from being breached.

Here, we explore the evolution of the security threat landscape, from threat actors improving their hacking techniques to the increasingly daunting task of protecting public-facing web applications and API endpoints. Not only do organizations need to get to grips with reality and understand they are under attack nearly 100 percent of the time, they must also come to terms with the fact that their current approach to defending their applications and APIs is woefully deficient.
