ABSTRACT:
We always hear about how attackers can break into your organization through the website because it far easier than trying to circumvent network defenses. Attackers will leverage critical vulnerabilities like SQL Injection (SQLi) and Cross Site Scripting (XSS) to steal personal, financial, or customer data while compromising your internal systems.
However there are a number of fairly basic, well known, and easy to perform vulnerabilities besides XSS and SQLi that plague many web applications even today. Client-side pricing, Google Hacking, trivial data leakage, and account hijacking can hurt an organization just as badly as XSS or SQLi.
If you are involved in building, testing or securing a web site or web application that includes user accounts, shopping cart functionality, or that stores personal or financial information, this webinar is for you. You will learn about the easy ways hackers hack into applications like yours.
In this webinar, participants will learn:
- The basics of client-side pricing attacks, Google hacking, trivial data leakage, and account hijacking
- Why these lesser known hacks can be extremely damaging to an organization
- Why these hacks are so easy for hackers
- Simple things you can do in your applications to protect against these attacks
