La ciberseguridad y métodos de validación de los sistemas informáticos en línea: un mapeo sistemático de la literatura
Alfredo Horacio Rios · 2024
Context: Web applications are subject to attacks from different locations at various levels of scale and complexity. In this context, both developers and researchers have proposed many techniques, tools and test frameworks to effectively and efficiently test the security of web applications avoiding the rise of cybercrime.Objective: Our goal is to summarize the state of the art in web application security testing that could benefit professionals to potentially use that information.Method: We reviewed and structured the body of knowledge related to web application security testing in the form of a systematic literature mapping. In this study, we posed three sets of research questions, defined selection, and exclusion criteria, and systematically developed a classification scheme. The initial group consisted of 1058 articles then after the inclusion/exclusion of articles there were 226 technical articles and applying a last filter there were 13 articles in our final group, this review includes all works until 2023.Results: This review document provides an overview of security testing of web applications with different types of authentications with a preponderance of biometric validations.
