Hacking Exposed Web 2.0 pdf

Hacking Exposed Web 2.0 Hacking Exposed Web 2.0 pdf
Hacking  exposed web 2.0 : web 2.0 security secrets and solutions pdf | Rich cannings , Himanshu Dwlvedl , Zane lackey

Hacking exposed web 2.0  covers Web 2.0 security issues from an attack and penetration perspective. Attacks on Web 2.0 applications, protocols, and implementations are discussed, as well as the mitigations to defend against these issues. The purposes of the book are to raise awareness, demonstrate attacks, and offer solutions for Web 2.0 security risks. This introduction will cover some basics on how Web 2.0 works, to help ensure that the chapters in the rest of the book are clear to all individuals.

Who would have thought that advertising, music, and software as a service would have been a few of the driving forces to bring back the popularity of the Internet? From the downfall of the dot-com to the success of Google Ads, from Napster's demise to Apple's comeback with iTunes, and from the ASP (Application Service Provider) market collapse to the explosion of hosted software solutions (Software as a Service), Web 2.0 looks strangely similar to Web 1.0. However, underneath the Web 2.0 platform, consumers are seeing a whole collection of technologies and solutions to enrich a user's online experience.

The new popularity came about due to organizations improving existing items that have been around awhile, but with a better offering to end users. Web 2.0 technologies are a big part of that, allowing applications to do a lot more than just provide static HTML to end users. With any new and/or emerging technology, security considerations tend to pop-up right at the end or not at all. As vendors are rushing to get features out the door first or to stay competitive with the industry, security requirements, features, and protections often get left off the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Hence, consumers are left with amazing technologies that have security holes all over them. This is not only true in Web 2.0, but other emerging technologies such as Voice Over IP (VoIP) or iSCSI storage.

Hack Proofing Your Web Applications

Posted: 17 Apr 2012 08:52 AM PDT

Hack Proofing Your Web Applications 236x300 Hack Proofing Your Web Applications

Hack Proofing Your Web Applications

Syngress  | ISBN: 1928994318 | 608 pages | PDF | 7 Mb

Hack Proofing Your Web Applications is the only book specifically written for application developers and webmasters who write programs that are used on web sites. It covers Java applications, XML, ColdFusion, and other database applications. Most hacking books focus on catching the hackers once they’ve entered the site; this one shows programmers how to design tight code that will deter hackers from the word go.

As a developer, the best possible way to focus on security is to begin to think like a hacker. Examine the methods that hackers use to break into and attack Web sites and use that knowledge to prevent attacks. You already test your code for functionality; one step further is to test it for security–attempt to break into it by finding some hole that you may have unintentionally left in

Foundations of Security What Every Programmer Needs to Know

Foundations of Security What Every Programmer Needs to Know Foundations of Security What Every Programmer Needs to Know

Foundations of Security What Every Programmer Needs to Know | Neil Daswani, Christoph Kern, Anita Kesavan

Physically securing your system and laying down good policies for employees and users is often just as important as using the technological security mechanisms that we cover in this book. All of your servers should be behind locked doors, and only a privileged set of employees (typically system and security administrators) should have access to them. In addition, data centers used to house farms of servers can employ cameras, card reader and biometric locks, and even "vaults" of various kinds, depending upon the sensitivity of data stored on the servers. In addition to mechanisms that limit access to a physical space to prevent asset theft and unauthorized entry, there are also mechanisms that protect against information leakage and document theft. Documents containing sensitive information can be shredded before they're disposed of so that determined hackers can be prevented from gathering sensitive information by sifting through the company's garbage. Such an attack is often referred to as dumpster diving.

Developer’s guide to Web Application Security | ISBN-10: 159749061X | ISBN-13: 978-1597490610|Michael Cross

Over 75% of network attacks are targeted at the web application layer. This book provides explicit hacks, tutorials, penetration tests, and step-by-step demonstrations for security professionals and Web application developers to defend their most vulnerable applications.

This book defines Web application security, why it should be addressed earlier in the lifecycle in development and quality assurance, and how it differs from other types of Internet security. Additionally, the book examines the procedures and technologies that are essential to developing, penetration testing and releasing a secure Web application. Through a review of recent Web application breaches, the book will expose the prolific methods hackers use to execute Web attacks using common vulnerabilities such as SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting and Buffer Overflows in the application layer. By taking an in-depth look at the techniques hackers use to exploit Web applications, readers will be better equipped to protect confidential.

* The Yankee Group estimates the market for Web application-security products and services will grow to $1.74 billion by 2007 from $140 million in 2002

* Author Matt Fisher is a highly sought after speaker who regularly delivers Web Application presentations at leading conferences including: Black Hat, TechnoSecurity, CanSec West, Shmoo Con, Information Security, RSA Conferences, and more

* The Companion Web site will have downloadable code and scripts presented in the book

漢字はむずかしくない- Kanji isn’t that hard 24 ways to mastering kanji

Mastering kanji (Chinese characters) can be quite hard for learners, especially those from non-kanji-using countries, because there are a great number of characters and each one has different ways of being read. This textbook uses an innovative method, which enables learners to understand the origin and meaning (unit) of each kanji character. English Translation is included.

Web2py Full-stack Web Framework 4th edition

Posted: 10 Apr 2012 10:24 PM PDT

web2py manual cover 198x300 Web2py Full stack Web Framework 4th edition

Web2py Full-Stack Framework 4th edition | Massimo Di Pierro

 

Web2py full-stack framework 4th edition by Massimo Di Pierro is the official web2py manual. Vastly expanded and updated from 3rd edition.

web2py guides the developer through almost all the tasks common in web application development (creating and processing forms, managing sessions, cookies, errors, etc.). web2py differs from other frameworks with regard to the third principle, which sometimes conflicts with the other two. In particular, web2py does
not import user applications, but executes them in a predefined context. This context exposes the Python keywords, as well as the web2py keywords.
