Web applications are prone to security attacks. Web security is securing a web application layer from attacks by unauthorized users. A lot of the issues that occur over a web application is mainly due to the improper input provided by the client. This we discuss the different aspects of web security and its weakness. The main elements of web security techniques such as the passwords, encryption, authentication and integrity are also discussed. The anatomy of a web application attack and the attack techniques are also covered in details. Explores a number of methods for combatting this class of threats and assesses why they have not proven more successful. This project proposes a better way for minimizing these type of web vulnerabilities. It also provides the best security mechanisms for the said attacks. Web applications are active websites which are composition of server based programs serving user interaction and various other functionalities. Web Server security is thus an important aspect for any organisation having web server connectivity with the internet and also to ensure customers using their websites, for a secure online portal. In this age of digital revolution, there has been a rise in demand of web developers who can produce user friendly web platforms such as mobile applications, web applications. The user base for online web applications is on a rise too. We have seen a huge emphasis on creating visual and catchy web applications but with large amount of sensitive user data at stake there should be more focus on providing web security to the applications developed.
