Sep 02, 2015, 10:11 AM

Malicious actors continue to deploy SQL injection (SQLi) attacks to carry out their cybercriminal activities. The Threat Research team at Akamai designed a technique to categorize these attacks by examining attack payloads and determining the intent behind each attack. They analyzed 8 million SQLi attacks over a seven-day study period from Akamai's Kona Site Defender web application firewall (WAF) and distilled the information, identifying the observed attacks and their goals, as well as pertinent attack stats from the study. This audio podcast offers a quick view of the results. Get more details in the full State of the Internet Security Report at http://bit.ly/1KfWTrG
