Web App Pentest - Part 3 Fuzzing
When We test the web application,
we do not test a single page but we test lot of page of a single web
application. So each page may have more than one variable so technically you
will be engaging with ton of variables within your web application test. So
when you inject anything to the input it is good to know what kind of effect
your injection is making to the server. In this part of these article series we
will look at the importance of simple alphabetic injection along with the web
page encoding technology and how it does effect on our testing and result.
Web App Pentest - Part 2 Indentifying Injection Points
If your web page is static, you cannot
test it as far as security concern. You can test it at some sort of view but
you can’t play with it much as compare to dynamic page. Nikto scanner is a good
utility which works best in testing static sites. There has to be some
interaction between client and server via login panel, comment section, register
page, contact us form and so on.

Web App Pentest - Part 1 Introduction
In this series of articles, I am going to demonstrate how you
can manually exploit the vulnerability of a web application, compared to
using any automation tool, in order to find vulnerabilities in the
application. Almost all companies worldwide focus on manual testing of
web application rather than running web application scanners, which
limit your knowledge and skills and the scope of finding a vulnerability
with your testing.
For the whole series I am going to use these programs:

Different Types of Wireless Attacks - Theory
As we all know that wireless networks are spread at each
and every part of the world starting
from personal home to corporate business, schools/universities, cafes etc..
Major merit of wireless network is of eliminating the big and tidy cables which
acquires space and not spoiling the look of your working area. But as we all
know that each coin has two sides. There are demerits of wireless networks as
well. It comes with high possibility of attacks on it. In this article I am
going to describe different techniques of wireless attacks from the world and
what we should do to prevent those attacks on wireless networks.

Firewall Unleashed
Introduction
Firewalls are used to monitor and control the inbound and
outbound traffic on the protected network. They have an ability to block
and allow the internal as well as external services within the network.
Before allowing access to the service, a firewall may also force the
client / user to pass through an authentication. Sometimes a firewall
can be also used in IPSEC tunnels as a platform. It monitors
security-related events.

General SSL Architecture
It is designed to secure end-to-end service on the internet. I will illustrate that SSL is not a single handed protocol. It is a layer of more than one protocol such as
a. SSL record protocol
b. SSL handshake protocol
c. SSL change cipher spec protocol
d. SSL alert protocol

Suspicious File Analysis With PEFRAME
In this article I am going to conduct a walk through with a nice python tool named PeFrame. This tool should be an analyst’s first choice in order to analysis a piece of static malware. I am going to discuss each and every feature provided by this tool and I will also show you why it is important to find information through the malware.
