While external cyber-threats remain a key challenge to businesses, the overall trend of vulnerabilities appears to be declining. The overall number dropped in 2020 by 2.04 percent compared to the year previous (23,006 compared to 23,485 respectively).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The most common web-related vulnerability in 2020 is Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), comprising 28 percent of all vulnerabilities. Meanwhile, the second most common vulnerability are injection flaws with SQL injections being the most popular. However, while the overall trend is down, the number of new API vulnerabilities is rising, with 338 in 2020. <\/span>Finally, WordPress registered the highest number of vulnerabilities among content management systems in 2020. <\/span><\/p>\n

The conclusion of the report provides some insights as to what enterprises can do to close these vulnerabilities.\u201cOne of the best solutions for protecting against web application database vulnerabilities is to deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) and Data Monitoring & Protection. The solution may be either on-premise, in the cloud, or a combination of both depending on your needs, infrastructure, and more. As organizations move more of their apps and data to the cloud, it\u2019s important to think through your security requirements.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
