The system and method correlate between hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) requests and structured query language (SQL) queries. The system operates in two modes: learn mode and protect mode. In the learn mode, the system identifies pairs of uniform resource locators (URLs) and SQL templates, in addition to, pairs of correlation parameters and SQL queries. In the protect mode, for each incoming SQL query, the system binds to each submitted SQL query a session identifier (sessionID) of a corresponding HTTP request and the user identity of the user that submitted the query.
