Synopsis
When you launch an application on the web, every hacker in the world has access to it. Are you sure your web apps can stand up to the most sophisticated attacks?
Grokking Web Application Security is a brilliantly illustrated and clearly written guide that delivers detailed coverage on:
- How the browser security model works, including sandboxing, the same-origin policy, and methods of securing cookies
- Securing web servers with input validation, escaping of output, and defense in depth
- A development process that prevents security bugs
- Protecting yourself from browser vulnerabilities such as cross-site scripting, cross-site request forgery, and clickjacking
- Network vulnerabilities like man-in-the-middle attacks, SSL-stripping, and DNS poisoning
- Preventing authentication vulnerabilities that allow brute forcing of credentials by using single sign-on or multi-factor authentication
- Authorization vulnerabilities like broken access control and session jacking
- How to use encryption in web applications
- Injection attacks, command execution attacks, and remote code execution attacks
- Malicious payloads that can be used to attack XML parsers, and file upload functions

From the Back Cover:
Grokking Web Application Security teaches you everything you need to know to secure your web applications in the browser, on the server, and even at the code level. The book is perfect for both junior and experienced learners. It's written to be language-agnostic, with advice and vulnerability insights that will work with any stack.
You'll begin with the foundations of web security and then dive into dozens of practical security recommendations for both common and not-so-common vulnerabilities: everything from SQL injection to cross-site scripting inclusion attacks. Explore growing modern threats like supply-chain attacks and attacks on APIs, learn about cryptography and how it applies to the web, and discover how to pick up the pieces after a hacker has successfully gotten inside your app.
About the reader:
For junior web developers who know the basics of web programming, or more experienced developers looking for concrete advice on solving vulnerabilities.
