The framework of runtime application self-protection technology

This paper describes the basic concepts of a relatively new security approach - Runtime Application Self-Protection Technology (RASP), whose wider implementation is expected in the near future. The current focus of this technology is on the vulnerabilities of Java and .NET platforms. In addition to typification, the paper presents the advantages and disadvantages of RASP. Despite the undoubted advantages, it is not an independent and comprehensive solution to ensure the security of the software. In combination with the tried and tested conventional methods, RASP provides an efficient way to prevent malicious activities.
