Application firewalls

“To help protect applications, a new class of software has hit the streets, designed to help customers secure their Web sites from dangers such as embarrassing defacements and theft of customer identities and corporate data. These so-called application firewalls sit between the public Internet and Web server and filter Web traffic for illegitimate data requests. To date, there are only three vendors in this arena: KaVaDo, Sanctum, and Stratum8 Networks. ”
