Our team and technology actively combats the following areas that lead to information theft, leakage and manipulation.
- Abuse of functionality – This attack technique uses a website’s own features and functionality to consume, defraud and circumvent access control mechanism.
- Brute force – The brute force attack is an automated process of trial and error used to identify an individual’s username, password, cryptographic key, credit card number etc.
- Buffer overflow – This attack changes the flow of an application by over writing some parts of the memory
- Content spoofing – This is an attack technique, used to trick a user into believing that some part of content present on the website is legitimate and not from any external source.
- Cross site scripting – This attack practice forces a website to echo attacker supplied executable attack that loads in a user browser.
- Insufficient authentication – It occurs when a website allows an attacker to access sensitive content without having any prior authentication.
- Information leakage – It is defined as when a website affirms sensitive data such as error messages or developer comments that may assist an attacker in exploiting the system.
- Insufficient anti automation – It occurs when a website allows an attacker to automate a process that should only be performed manually.
- Insufficient process validation – It happens when a website grants an attacker to bypass or circumvent intended flow control of an application.
- Insufficient session expiration – This is defined when a website grants an attacker to reuse old session credentials for authorization.
- Path traversal – This attack technique forces access to directories, files and commands that potentially reside outside the web document root directory.
- Predictable resource location – This attack technique uncovers hidden website content and functionality.
- Session entrance – Till the user logs into the targeted website, the attacker waits and then when the fixed session ID value is used, the attacker may take over.
- Session fixation – It is an attack strategy that forces a user’s session ID to an explicit value.
- Session prediction – It is a method of impersonating or hijacking a website user.
- Session set-up – The attacker sets a trap session for the targeted website and gets that session id. Along with this, sometimes, attacker selects a session ID used in the attack. In some cases, the constituted trap session value must be maintained with repeated website contact.
- SQL injection – This attack is used to exploit Web sites, which constructs SQL statements from user supplied input
