How to Attack and Defend Your Website is a concise introduction to
web security that includes hands-on web hacking tutorials. The book
has three primary objectives: to help readers develop a deep
understanding of what is happening behind the scenes in a web
application, with a focus on the HTTP protocol and other underlying
web technologies; to teach readers how to use the industry standard
in free web application vulnerability discovery and exploitation
tools - most notably Burp Suite, a fully featured web application
testing tool; and finally, to gain knowledge of finding and
exploiting the most common web security vulnerabilities. This book
is for information security professionals and those looking to
learn general penetration testing methodology and how to use the
various phases of penetration testing to identify and exploit
common web protocols. How to Attack and Defend Your Website is be
the first book to combine the methodology behind using penetration
testing tools such as Burp Suite and Damn Vulnerable Web
Application (DVWA), with practical exercises that show readers how
to (and therefore, how to prevent) pwning with SQLMap and using
stored XSS to deface web pages.
