Description: A web threat refers to any potential danger that can exploit vulnerabilities in web applications or services. These threats can manifest in various forms, including SQL injection attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), malware, phishing, and denial of service (DoS). Web threats are particularly concerning due to the increasing reliance of organizations on digital technology and online connectivity. As more sensitive data is stored and processed online, the attack surface expands, making web applications an attractive target for cybercriminals. Security orchestration, automation, and response are critical components in defending against these threats, as they enable organizations to detect, analyze, and mitigate attacks more efficiently. Security orchestration integrates various security tools and processes to provide a coordinated response to incidents, while automation allows repetitive tasks to be executed without human intervention, improving the speed and accuracy of the response. Incident response focuses on the actions that must be taken once a threat has been detected, ensuring that damage is minimized and services are restored as quickly as possible.
