Ever increasing use of web application creates the number of threats and vulnerability in e-community. 81% of hacking attacks are directed towards web applications, which impose a great security threat to online banking, e-commerce and other organizations. Most of traditional Intrusion Detection Systems are useful for network layer attacks detection and fails to detect web application attacks with significant detection rate and show higher false alarm rate. Ontology is useful for the semantic rule generation which contains concepts specified by meaning and relationship. This paper covers the details of HTTP response splitting attack and proposes ontology that can be useful for its detection.
