There is no such thing as too much protection. If the company feels comfortable with this and thus requests nothing less, then it is worth having. From a technical standpoint, it may be overkill but it may be a requirement depending on audits done on the company and/or web apps. -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of marco cohen Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2012 11:23 AM To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: protecting web apps for governaments HI all Im doing a consulting for one of the governaments in europe. the idea is to create a most secure segment in which we will locate all the web apps of the gov and to protect them from any attack. we will buy equipment like SIEM, HIDS IPS, Firewalls and WAF and prevention of DDOS attacks. but additionaly to this I am working on policies to implement heardening of operation system of those servers. I am considering also politices of code review (in this process algo input validation), and twice a year pentest to all the 200 web sites. I am wondering if also doing code review for every change in the those web apps + pentest 2 time a year + WAF. ISNT THAT TO MUCH FOR PROTECTING THE WEB SERVERS?? thanks a lot! marco ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.
