Web Application Analysis
Summary
Web Application Analysis is engaged in finding and vulnerabilities and if necessary to harden current security measures. The analysing process should be contemplated for every web application. It might reveal exploits that would cause devastating consequences. Unprotected websites and web applications are targeted by hackers and often lead to database leaks, theft of banking information and infringement of privacy. Many companies are not technically adept and therefore cannot evaluate the possible damage, hoping to save costs in the development phase by skipping the web application analysis.
Requirements
- Notebook or VM running a Linux distribution (ideally Kali Linux)
- Internet connection (There are downloadable Testbeds too, an Internet connection is not required after install)
Needed Software
It is possible to perform web application analysis by hand but it is slower and mistakes can more easily happen. Using software tools created for finding vulnerabilities the efficiency increases significantly.
