Question

You are working for an organisation that is using a very old web-based application that was developed in-house and is only used by members of the organisation. The leader of the web development team has indicated that the application needs to be urgently redeveloped as it is dependent upon outdated frameworks that have recently been found to be vulnerable to SQL injection attacks, however the organisation is currently short on funding. One of the security team has suggested using a web application firewall to prevent common attacks instead.
(a) Explain the additional security that would be provided by the web application firewall.
(b) Discuss any alternative or complimentary technologies that would assist in securing the application.
