Burp Suite is a proprietary software tool for security assessment and penetration testing of web applications. [2] [3] It was initially developed in 2003-2006 by Dafydd Stuttard [4] to automate his own security testing needs, after realizing the capabilities of automatable web tools like Selenium. [5]
Digest access authentication is one of the agreed-upon methods a web server can use to negotiate credentials, such as username or password, with a user's web browser. This can be used to confirm the identity of a user before sending sensitive information, such as online banking transaction history.
HTTP Parameter Pollution (HPP) is a web application vulnerability exploited by injecting encoded query string delimiters in already existing parameters.The vulnerability occurs if user input is not correctly encoded for output by a web application. [1]
A High Assurance Internet Protocol Encryptor (HAIPE) is a Type 1 encryption device that complies with the National Security Agency's HAIPE IS (formerly the HAIPIS, the High Assurance Internet Protocol Interoperability Specification).
The V-AAA in the serving network communicates with the H-AAA in a roamer's home network. Authentication requests and accounting information are forwarded by the V-AAA to the H-AAA, either directly or through a B-AAA. Current AAA servers communicate using the RADIUS protocol. As such, TIA specifications refer to AAA servers as RADIUS servers ...
Illustration of a replay attack. Alice (A) sends her hashed password to Bob (B). Eve (E) sniffs the hash and replays it. Suppose Alice wants to prove her identity to Bob. . Bob requests her password as proof of identity, which Alice dutifully provides (possibly after some transformation like hashing, or even salting, the password); meanwhile, Eve is eavesdropping on the conversation and keeps ...
Color-code your memories: One memory trick Caccappolo swears by is using different colors to write down different information she needs to retain. "I carry around a pen that you can click and use ...
Challenge-response authentication can help solve the problem of exchanging session keys for encryption. Using a key derivation function, the challenge value and the secret may be combined to generate an unpredictable encryption key for the session. This is particularly effective against a man-in-the-middle attack, because the attacker will not ...
