SQL Injection Attacks and Defense, First Edition: Winner of the Best Book Bejtlich Read Award "SQL injection is probably the number one problem for any server-side application, and this book unequaled in its coverage." –Richard Bejtlich, Tao Security blog SQL injection represents one of the most dangerous and well-known, yet misunderstood, security vulnerabilities on the Internet, largely because there is no central repository of information available for penetration testers, IT security consultants and practitioners, and web/software developers to turn to for help. SQL Injection Attacks and Defense, Second Edition is the only book devoted exclusively to this long-established but recently growing threat. This is the definitive resource for understanding, finding, exploiting, and defending against this increasingly popular and particularly destructive type of Internet-based attack. SQL Injection Attacks and Defense, Second Edition includes all the currently known information about these attacks and significant insight from its team of SQL injection experts, who tell you about: Understanding SQL Injection – Understand what it is and how it works Find, confirm and automate SQL injection discovery Tips and tricks for finding SQL injection within code Create exploits for using SQL injection Design apps to avoid the dangers these attacks SQL injection on different databases SQL injection on different technologies SQL injection testing techniques Case Studies Securing SQL Server, Second Edition is the only book to provide a complete understanding of SQL injection, from the basics of vulnerability to discovery, exploitation, prevention, and mitigation measures. Covers unique, publicly unavailable information, by technical experts in such areas as Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, and MySQL---including new developments for Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (Denali). Written by an established expert, author, and speaker in the field, with contributions from a team of equally renowned creators of SQL injection tools, applications, and educational materials.

Learn to exploit vulnerable database applications using SQL injection tools and techniques, while understanding how to effectively prevent attacks Key FeaturesUnderstand SQL injection and its effects on websites and other systemsGet hands-on with SQL injection using both manual and automated toolsExplore practical tips for various attack and defense strategies relating to SQL injectionBook Description SQL injection (SQLi) is probably the most infamous attack that can be unleashed against applications on the internet. SQL Injection Strategies is an end-to-end guide for beginners looking to learn how to perform SQL injection and test the security of web applications, websites, or databases, using both manual and automated techniques. The book serves as both a theoretical and practical guide to take you through the important aspects of SQL injection, both from an attack and a defense perspective. You’ll start with a thorough introduction to SQL injection and its impact on websites and systems. Later, the book features steps to configure a virtual environment, so you can try SQL injection techniques safely on your own computer. These tests can be performed not only on web applications but also on web services and mobile applications that can be used for managing IoT environments. Tools such as sqlmap and others are then covered, helping you understand how to use them effectively to perform SQL injection attacks. By the end of this book, you will be well-versed with SQL injection, from both the attack and defense perspective. What you will learnFocus on how to defend against SQL injection attacksUnderstand web application securityGet up and running with a variety of SQL injection conceptsBecome well-versed with different SQL injection scenariosDiscover SQL injection manual attack techniquesDelve into SQL injection automated techniquesWho this book is for This book is ideal for penetration testers, ethical hackers, or anyone who wants to learn about SQL injection and the various attack and defense strategies against this web security vulnerability. No prior knowledge of SQL injection is needed to get started with this book.

This Short Cut introduces you to how SQL injection vulnerabilities work, what makes applications vulnerable, and how to protect them. It helps you find your vulnerabilities with analysis and testing tools and describes simple approaches for fixing them in the most popular web-programming languages. This Short Cut also helps you protect your live applications by describing how to monitor for and block attacks before your data is stolen. Hacking is an increasingly criminal enterprise, and web applications are an attractive path to identity theft. If the applications you build, manage, or guard are a path to sensitive data, you must protect your applications and their users from this growing threat.

Hackers exploit browser vulnerabilities to attack deep withinnetworks The Browser Hacker's Handbook gives a practicalunderstanding of hacking the everyday web browser and using it as abeachhead to launch further attacks deep into corporate networks.Written by a team of highly experienced computer security experts,the handbook provides hands-on tutorials exploring a range ofcurrent attack methods. The web browser has become the most popular and widely usedcomputer "program" in the world. As the gateway to the Internet, itis part of the storefront to any business that operates online, butit is also one of the most vulnerable entry points of any system.With attacks on the rise, companies are increasingly employingbrowser-hardening techniques to protect the unique vulnerabilitiesinherent in all currently used browsers. The Browser Hacker'sHandbook thoroughly covers complex security issues and exploresrelevant topics such as: Bypassing the Same Origin Policy ARP spoofing, social engineering, and phishing to accessbrowsers DNS tunneling, attacking web applications, andproxying—all from the browser Exploiting the browser and its ecosystem (plugins andextensions) Cross-origin attacks, including Inter-protocol Communicationand Exploitation The Browser Hacker's Handbook is written with aprofessional security engagement in mind. Leveraging browsers aspivot points into a target's network should form an integralcomponent into any social engineering or red-team securityassessment. This handbook provides a complete methodology tounderstand and structure your next browser penetration test.
