Increasing the Reliability of Security Testing Results

To increase the reliability of security testing results, developers are finding that security testing should be a combination of analysis techniques - utilizing source code analysis information to direct a second, more practical approach called dynamic analysis.

Summary of Attacks and Attack Detection Methods

This white paper describes various vulnerabilities and the methods that attackers can use to exploit those vulnerabilities. It discusses different types of attacks, how the attacks are carried out and the detection mechanisms that can be used to detect them.

Security Risk Assessment and Management in Web Applications

Security risk assessment and security risk management have become vital tasks for security officers and IT managers.

Testing for Security in the Age of Ajax Programming

Ajax (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) allows a Web page to refresh a small portion of its data from a Web server, rather than being forced to reload and redraw the entire page as in traditional Web programming. Since they can make frequent, small updates, Web applications written with Ajax programming can present user interfaces that are more like desktop applications, which are more natural and intuitive interfaces for most users.

Multiservice Networking: Examples of Service Delivery

The Juniper Networks M-series family is built according to modern architectural principles that make it ideal for both core and edge applications. Because of the performance and scalability resulting from this modern architecture, M-series platforms have been used to construct some of the world's largest networks.

Your First Step to a Highly Secure Web Site

If an organization isn't taking a systematic and proactive approach to Web security, and to running a Web application vulnerability assessment in particular, then that organization isn't defended against the most rapidly increasing class of attacks.
