Explain about Security Testing in webbased application?..

Answer / ramyab.mca@gmail.com

Hai...

Security Testing:

Following are some test cases for web security testing:

Test by pasting internal url directly into browser address
bar without login. Internal pages should not open.
If you are logged in using username and password and
browsing internal pages then try changing url options
directly. I.e. If you are checking some publisher site
statistics with publisher site ID= 123. Try directly
changing the url site ID parameter to different site ID
which is not related to logged in user. Access should
denied for this user to view others stats.
Try some invalid inputs in input fields like login
username, password, input text boxes. Check the system
reaction on all invalid inputs.
Web directories or files should not be accessible directly
unless given download option.
Test the CAPTCHA for automates scripts logins.
Test if SSL is used for security measures. If used proper
message should get displayed when user switch from non-
secure http:// pages to secure https:// pages and vice
versa.
All transactions, error messages, security breach attempts
should get logged in log files somewhere on web server.
