商品描述

Web applications occupy a large space within the IT infrastructure of a business or a corporation. They simply just don't touch a front end or a back end; today's web apps impact just about every corner of it. Today's web apps have become complex, which has made them a prime target for sophisticated cyberattacks. As a result, web apps must be literally tested from the inside and out in terms of security before they can be deployed and launched to the public for business transactions to occur.

The primary objective of this book is to address those specific areas that require testing before a web app can be considered to be completely secure. The book specifically examines five key areas:

 

 

  • Network security: This encompasses the various network components that are involved in order for the end user to access the particular web app from the server where it is stored at to where it is being transmitted to, whether it is a physical computer itself or a wireless device (such as a smartphone).
  • Cryptography: This area includes not only securing the lines of network communications between the server upon which the web app is stored at and from where it is accessed from but also ensuring that all personally identifiable information (PII) that is stored remains in a ciphertext format and that its integrity remains intact while in transmission.
  • Penetration testing: This involves literally breaking apart a Web app from the external environment and going inside of it, in order to discover all weaknesses and vulnerabilities and making sure that they are patched before the actual Web app is launched into a production state of operation.
  • Threat hunting: This uses both skilled analysts and tools on the Web app and supporting infrastructure to continuously monitor the environment to find all security holes and gaps.
  • The Dark Web: This is that part of the Internet that is not openly visible to the public. As its name implies, this is the "sinister" part of the Internet, and in fact, where much of the PII that is hijacked from a web app cyberattack is sold to other cyberattackers in order to launch more covert and damaging threats to a potential victim.

Testing and Securing Web Applications breaks down the complexity of web application security testing so this critical part of IT and corporate infrastructure remains safe and in operation.

網頁應用程式在企業或公司的 IT 基礎架構中佔據了重要的空間。它們不僅僅涉及前端或後端;當今的網頁應用程式幾乎影響到基礎架構的每一個角落。當今的網頁應用程式變得複雜,這使它們成為精密網路攻擊的主要目標。因此,網頁應用程式在部署和公開進行商業交易之前,必須從內到外進行安全測試。

本書的主要目標是針對在網頁應用程式被認為完全安全之前需要測試的特定領域進行探討。本書特別檢視五個關鍵領域:

- **網路安全:** 這涵蓋了各種網路組件,使用戶能夠從存放網頁應用程式的伺服器訪問該應用程式,無論是傳輸到實體電腦還是無線設備(如智能手機)。
- **密碼學:** 此領域不僅包括保護存放網頁應用程式的伺服器與用戶訪問的伺服器之間的網路通信,還確保所有存儲的個人可識別信息(PII)保持在密文格式中,並在傳輸過程中保持其完整性。
- **滲透測試:** 這涉及從外部環境實際拆解網頁應用程式,深入其內部,以發現所有弱點和漏洞,並確保在實際網頁應用程式進入生產運行狀態之前進行修補。
- **威脅獵捕:** 這使用技術分析師和工具對網頁應用程式及其支援基礎架構進行持續監控,以尋找所有安全漏洞和缺口。
- **暗網:** 這是互聯網中不對公眾開放可見的部分。顧名思義,這是互聯網的「陰暗」部分,實際上,許多從網頁應用程式網路攻擊中劫持的個人可識別信息(PII)在此被出售給其他網路攻擊者,以發起更隱秘和具破壞性的威脅。

《測試與保護網頁應用程式》簡化了網頁應用程式安全測試的複雜性,以確保這一 IT 和企業基礎架構的關鍵部分保持安全並正常運行。
