Security in ASP.Net ApplicationsHits: 27
*****
Marcus Mac Innes demonstrates how security on a web site can be compromised by taking advantage of holes within the application code. These holes can be discovered by using a series of probes which disclose whether or not vulnerability exists. He also demonstrated using a Cross Site Scripting attack how the Forms Authentication cookie could be stolen and silently sent to an attacker's website to be stored for later use. The key message of the talk is to ensure that all user input is validated before any other processing is done. This together with strict use of secure coding standards would have disabled any attacker's opportunities. Source code included.
