Abstract:

The Study on web penetration testing and vulnerability assessment focus on the evaluation of the various vulnerabilities, and tools required to penetrate these vulnerabilities. It focuses on the development of making web applications secure before the intruder tries to attack the web application. It also provides the idea to assess the vulnerabilities and introduce different preventive measures that will help in preventing intruders from accessing sensitive information. The experiments are done using open-source software which is freely available on the internet. OWASP WAP (Damn Vulnerable Web Application) and RIPS (Buggy Web Application) already have the vulnerabilities and are mainly used for the study purpose and analyses of the result. With this study, one can understand how ethical hacking activities are performed and also place necessary security measures in protecting the organization. A similar study practice can be performed over real-life websites and networks for testing the vulnerability and carry out the assessments.
