Evolutionary Security Testing of Web Applications (Fast Abstract)

چکیده
Complexity of modern web applications usually leads to low coverage of test cases which are designed manually. This paper proposes an evolutionary testing strategy that automatically synthesizes test cases for penetrating web applications, based on an initial set of data on user interaction sessions.

Semi-Automatic Security Testing of Web Applications with Fault Models and Properties
Web applications are complex and face a significant amount of complex attacks, as well. The complexity makes manual testing of web applications for security issues hard and time consuming, thus, automated testing is preferable. To tackle the complexity, we propose a (semi-)automatic model-based testing approach. Using models, test cases are often generated using structural criteria. Since such ...
متن کاملSecurity testing of session initiation protocol implementations
The mechanisms which enable the vast majority of computer attacks are based on design and programming errors in networked applications. The growing use of voice over IP (VOIP) phone technology makes these phone applications potential targets. We present a tool to perform security testing of VOIP applications to identify security vulnerabilities which can be exploited by an attacker. Session Ini...

متن کاملDual Security Testing Model for Web Applications
In recent years, web applications have evolved from small websites into large multi-tiered applications. The quality of web applications depends on the richness of contents, well structured navigation and most importantly its security. Web application testing is a new field of research so as to ensure the consistency and quality of web applications. In the last ten years there have been differe...
متن کاملA Technique for Improving Web Mining using Enhanced Genetic Algorithm
World Wide Web is growing at a very fast pace and makes a lot of information available to the public. Search engines used conventional methods to retrieve information on the Web; however, the search results of these engines are still able to be refined and their accuracy is not high enough. One of the methods for web mining is evolutionary algorithms which search according to the user interests...
