Renee wants to choose a control that will protect her organization against SQL injection attacks. Which of the following is likely to be the most effective control for attacks that are announced without prior notice and that require a very quick response?

Answer Options

A

Web application penetration testing

B

A WAF

C

Static code review

D

SASE

Correct Answer: B

Explanation

A major advantage of WAFs is the ability to use thread and rule feeds from vendors that quickly respond to new threats and attacks. At the same time, Renee can also build WAF rules faster than it would take to deploy code fixes in many cases. Penetration testing and static code review are both slow processes and are not suited to the rapid respond described. SASE is used to protect diverse endpoints in many locations, not to counter SQL injection (SQLi) against a web service.
