There are many attacks against Web Applications which can lead to the
hackers having full control of the Network. These attacks first begin
by exploiting any common Data Input found on today's interactive Web
Application, which can not be solved by encryption, Firewalls or the
platform. These attacks can only be prevented by writing secure code.
Most developers can write excellent code, but if they do not know how a
hacker can exploit their Web Applications, then how can they write secure
code.
Therefore, this workshop will provide solid and real world examples of
how to attack Web Application such as taking advantage of:
- Canonical Issues
- In Depth Look at SQL Injection Attacks
- Buffer Overflow
- Cross Site Scripting
- Replay Attack of Authentication Cookies.
Finally the workshop will cover how to write secure code that is necessary
to provide the countermeasures required to prevent the above mentioned attacks.
