■ "Operable Web Security" is demanded due to IPA's "Top 10 Threats 2026"
In "Information Security Top 10 Threats 2026 (Organizations)" published by IPA, risks directly linked to business continuity, such as "attacks exploiting system vulnerabilities" and "DDoS attacks," are listed among the top threats, alongside ransomware attacks and supply chain attacks. As websites/web applications are publicly exposed, they can become targets of attacks regardless of industry or scale. Therefore, it is necessary to anticipate a continued increase in inquiries from customers saying, "We want to protect with WAF" or "We want to strengthen web entry point security." For this reason, the proposing side is required to explain and provide not just "implementation," but also "continuous protection."
■ Even if WAF can be proposed, the operational burden becomes a barrier to project realization
On the other hand, the bottleneck in the field is not WAF itself, but its operation after implementation. Without anticipating continuous tasks such as initial setup, rule design, tuning, exception handling, false positive handling, and log checking, SIers/resellers tend to halt proposals for reasons like "we can propose but can't handle the operation," "we're afraid of incidents," or "the customer can't manage it, making it just an 'implementation only' situation." As a result, despite the recognized necessity, "postponing due to heavy operation" accumulates, leading to a state where WAF demand cannot be fully met.
■ This seminar will concretize a "proposal model" that entrusts operations
This seminar will first organize how to understand web threats based on IPA's "Top 10 Threats 2026," and then explain how to design WAF proposals to overcome common sticking points (setup, tuning, false positive handling) to achieve a "state where operations can also be proposed." Additionally, using Managed WAF (Barracuda Managed WAF), which allows these operations to be entrusted to a specialized team, as an example, the seminar will specifically introduce the scope that should be explained during proposals, common pitfalls after implementation, and methods for maintaining defense levels while reducing operational burden. SIers/resellers who want to switch from a one-off sale to a "proposal that ensures operation" amidst increasing WAF demand are encouraged to participate.
