G. V. Pradeep Kumar · International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology · 2021
This Project depicts an in-depth technical approach to perform manual Vulnerability Assessment and infiltration test in web applications for testing the integrity and security of the application and furthermore serves as a manual for test in SANS Top 25 security vulnerabilities.The project is more centered around giving definite information about manual web application penetration testing techniques to get them from malignant black hat hackers.A victim's website can be used for criminal activities, while illegally using the website's bandwidth and making its owner liable for these unlawful acts.While developing the websites, many times developers/site owners forget to remove sensitive data from the website which is not supposed to be exposed to public users.Such data consists of untested vulnerable forms, database backup, and site backup in compressed format.A hacker tries to search for such kind of data and tries to collect important information from it like login detail from that data.So, we will be analyzing all the ways to find such vulnerabilities and also developing the patch to avoid such attacks and prevent them from occurring.
