Secure Web Application Development

Cyberattacks are becoming more commonplace and the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP), estimates 94% of sites have flaws in their access control alone.  Attacks evolve to work around new defenses, and defenses must evolve to remain effective.  Developers need to understand the fundamentals of attacks and defenses in order to comprehend new techniques as they become available. 
This book uses a hand-on approach to teach you how to write secure web applications and will highlight how hackers attack applications along with a broad arsenal of defenses. You'll see how to Implement the right defenses in Python/Django applications to prevent such attacks. Secure Web Application Development is your guide to picking the appropriate techniques to close vulnerabilities and ensuring you still provide users with their needed functionality.
You will:Understand common coding vulnerabilities and how to avoid themConfigure services, such as databases and web servers, to minimize the risk of attackImplement secure methods for password management, authentication, and authorizationSafely manage requests to and from external web sitesEstablish a framework for modelling and assessing risks
