The new industry research report from Technavio analyzes some of the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.

RASP, an advanced technology, can prevent advanced threats

Some of the threats that RASP can prevent are  DT, SQLI, XSS, RFI, EmExt, LFI, and ComSpm. One of the threats, called the comment spamming, is a way to manipulate the ranking of the spammer’s website. A high ranking increases the number of paying customers and potential visitors of this site. The attack targets web applications that allow visitors to submit content that contains hyperlinks. The attacker automatically posts random comments or promotions of commercial services to publicly accessible online forums that contain links to the promoted site. RASP has the ability to avoid the threat within the application during its runtime.

Growing demand for runtime security due to internet attacks

Modern online methods are of high standards and have more benefits over traditional methods yet they come with high security risks. Cases such as data theft and phishing are on the rise, and new forms of attacks are emerging. Customers using services provided by bank and payment card companies to make online transactions and payments using the internet pose a high risk towards internet attacks. To securely protect themselves against all attacks, end-users are adopting RASP security solutions

Improving the quality of security

In the rapidly changing business environment, financial assets exist mostly in the form of digitized information and can be stored anywhere on the IT infrastructure. The volume of data in organizations, including records, web-log files, and social networks, is growing significantly. Organizations in the BFSI sector, in particular, require RASP security solutions to prevent fraud and unauthorized payments and to track the large volumes of data generated. However, the increased volume of data makes it difficult to identify unauthorized transactions. In addition, increased online transactions have led to an increase in card-related and insurance claim fraud. These are the major factors driving the demand for RASP security solutions in the BFSI sector.

Some of the other prominent vendors identified in this report are Arxan Technology, Contrast Security, CyberGRC, IMMUNIO, Prevoty, Vasco, and Waratek.
