Abstract

In recent days, one of the popular Web servers used by the majority of Web sites in the globe is Apache. Furthermore, lack of proper tuning of these Web servers causes delay in the network by 40% approximately. The present digital world depends upon Web applications to deliver its functionality. Economies, governments, organizations, and ultimately people rely heavily on the performance of the Web applications. Hence, in real time, the practical problem arises in tuning of the Web servers. The Web servers and poor coding of Web applications are the source for the vulnerabilities in the Web. In this, paper focuses on defending the vulnerabilities in Web applications deployed on Apache Web server through protecting the HTTP header and implementing the secured configuration of Apache Web server and ModSecurity Web application firewall.
