Abstract
Web applications contain vulnerabilities, which may lead to serious security breaches such as stealing of confidential information. To protect against security breaches, it is necessary to understand the detailed steps of attacks and the pros and cons of existing defense mechanisms. This tutorial provides an overview of four web application security vulnerabilities: SQL injection, Cross-Site Scripting, Cross-Site Request Forgery, and clickjacking. Then it discusses two popular mitigation approaches: security testing and monitoring. The tutorial is intended to enable practitioners for choosing the right technique to defend against web application security vulnerabilities.
