Application Monitoring & Protection

Application Monitoring & Protection (AMP) combines runtime security, API discovery, and threat correlation to defend against OWASP Top 10 risks and business logic attacks. Organizations using AMP reduce application breaches by 70% and mean-time-to-remediation by 65% :cite[5].

Core Capabilities

Key Benefits

AMP solutions detect 95% of API vulnerabilities pre-production and reduce false positives by 40% through behavioral analysis. Integration with WAFs enables sub-second attack blocking while cutting alert fatigue :cite[5]:cite[9].

FAQs

Q: How does JSON threat protection work?

A: Enforces structural limits like max depth (10), string length (500 chars), and array elements (10,000) to prevent parser DDoS :cite[3]:cite[9].

Q: Can AMP protect serverless applications?

A: Yes - modern solutions like Datadog AAP instrument AWS Lambda/Azure Functions without performance impact :cite[5].

Q: What's the typical detection accuracy?

A: 90-98% for known threats using ML correlation; 75-85% for zero-days via behavioral baselining.
