Best Security Solution
PerimeterX Code Defender is a client-side application security solution that allows web application developers and information security teams to analyze website code for JavaScript vulnerabilities and suspicious behavior that could expose their site to digital skimming and Magecart attacks. Digital skimming is one of the fastest growing attack types, as evidenced by the acceleration of Magecart attacks and compliance penalties on major brands like Macy’s and Procter & Gamble’s First Aid Beauty. British Airways specifically faced a GDPR fine of over $220 million. As logic moves to the front end, attackers are taking advantage of the increased attack surface on the client side. Industry estimates state that about 70% of website front-end code consists of third-party scripts, creating an easy target for attackers. And according to Osterman Research, only 8% of organizations have full insight into the Shadow Code that runs on their application. Shadow Code is JavaScript introduced into an application without a formal approval process or security validation. Code Defender tracks and monitors behavior and changes in scripts across the entire website supply chain, leveraging advanced machine learning models to detect anomalies in real time that could result in data exfiltration and blocking them. This prevents data leakage or loss, protecting customers’ data from attackers trying to exploit client-side vulnerabilities which ultimately damage brand reputation.
