ELY , UK, March 10, 2015 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Web applications are under increasing threat from malicious attacks. According to Imperva’s Web Application Attack Report 2014, there is a 10% year-on-year increase in SQL injection (SQLi) attacks and a 24% increase in remote file inclusion attacks (from 38% to 62%).
