Custom web applications are prevalent in organizations of all sizes. They contain as many as 33 vulnerabilities, six of which are critical, and also are typically the most frequently attacked asset in an organization. With this integration, threats to custom web applications are examined by the Alert Logic managed detection, response (MDR) solution, as well as security incidents are surfaced and curated to customers, expanding the abilities of internal security teams by helping address alert fatigue so they can concentrate on more value-added tasks.

"Alert Logic is a valued AWS Security Partner, with a team of managed security experts working around the clock to identify and proactively react to threats," said Andrew Thomas, General Manager of Perimeter Protection, Amazon Web Services, Inc. "Their integration with AWS Network Firewall provides in-depth threat intelligence and security monitoring to help customers reduce the likelihood and impact of a cybersecurity attack."

"Web applications are essential to businesses and their customers and are also among the most targeted and difficult to detect," said Onkar Birk, Chief Product Officer, Alert Logic. "AWS Network Firewall is the latest point of visibility and a great addition to Alert Logic web application threat detection, giving security teams a broader view of their attack surface for greater security coverage."
