Abstract: |
This chapter develops the topic of security in web applications. It addresses practical security issues and provides relevant examples. The presentation follows the methodology of the "Top Ten Project" by the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP), which outlines the main areas of vulnerability in web applications and methods for detecting and addressing them. The Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model is presented, which is the mechanism that authenticates and authorizes user access rights in an Information System (IS). Additionally, it covers cryptography and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), as well as the standards set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) for the security of Web Services (WS). Finally, it presents the security features of the Java programming language.
