Web Application Security
is the practice of protecting websites, web apps, and services against digital
threats that target confidentiality, integrity, and availability. It addresses
vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, and insecure
configurations—common risks identified by OWASP . Key defenses include secure
coding, strong authentication, HTTPS, WAFs, and input validation to block
malicious traffic. Regular testing through SAST, DAST, IAST, and penetration
testing ensures early detection during development cycles. By integrating
security into DevSecOps pipelines and employing continuous monitoring,
organizations can prevent attacks, build trust, comply with regulations, and
maintain resilient, user-trusted applications.
