Penta Security to Showcase WAPPLES at GITEX Technology Week 2021

In less than two years, WAPPLES has been adopted by numerous businesses, public institutions, and NGOs in the region due to a surge in web attacks during the COVID-19 pandemic, as reported in Penta Security's semi-annual Web Attack Trends Report, which illustrated a growing number of extension filtering attacks in Asia and request header filtering attacks in Africa.

WAPPLES was designed to tackle this growing threat. Its greatest advantage comes from its COCEP^TM Engine, a proprietary detection engine that runs on AI-based logical rules instead of using conventional signature lists, enabling robust defense against all OWASP Top 10 web application security risks and protection against zero-day vulnerabilities. More importantly, it exhibits a near-zero false positive rate, ensuring maximized system performance. 

"COVID-19 has pushed digitalization in virtually all sectors and regions across the globe, yet this revolution has also triggered a new wave of more sophisticated cyberattacks, posing a greater risk to organizations," said DS Kim, Chief Strategy Officer of Penta Security. "We hope that more organizations in the MENA region can benefit from WAPPLES and stay safe in this new era."
