Secure Web Application: Rudimentary perspective

Abstract

WWW, one of the most pervasive technologies for information and service delivery over Internet with a potential to revise and preserve the web applications without dispensing and installing software on doubtlessly millions of client computers. As the web applications are increasingly used for crucial services, they have become a prominent and relevant target for any security outbreak. Software security is a methodology which guards against the malicious attacks and security failures along with an aim to increase system reliability. The prime objective of software security is to gain knowledge about the vulnerabilities in a system and foresee attacker’s motive and perception. This paper reviews the existing techniques of web application security, with the aim of standardizing them into a bigger picture to enable the future research areas. The scrutiny of a web application attack and the attack techniques are also enclosed in details. Lastly the parameters to provide a secure hosting surrounding to the applications are indexed. The paper summarizes the security of web application in a holistic manner and provides a range of ways to ensure that it’s as secure as it can be, as well as forever improving.

Model Design of Intrusion Detection System on Web Server Using Machine Learning Based

“…Nonetheless, with the right approach, ML has the potential to significantly increase the effectiveness of IDS, especially in dealing with evolving cybersecurity threats. In this article, we will discuss more how machine learning can be applied in IDS to improve web server security and the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead [8].…”
