Security is a very critical aspect of Web Applications, keeping in mind the alarming rise in cyber crimes and intrusion attempts by malicious users. The financial losses and legal consequences that organizations can face due to security incidents are immense.
This paper addresses some of the common maladies faced by QA Personnel and Customers from a SecurityPerspective. It describes the common Security vulnerabilities in applications with examples and techniques for testing the application for those vulnerabilities. Modelling techniques are discussed that help in identifying vulnerabilities and evaluate the Security Risks for an application. The paper suggests Processes, Framework, and Tools to help in providing highly effective and low cost Security Testing Solutions (specifically Penetration
Testing) for Web Applications. Embedded in the paper are Traceability Templates, a Test Plan Template, a Checklist and a Process flow for Security Testing.
