Abstract

Nowadays people are being more dependent on web application because of its accessibility. The web application is expected to play a significant role in internet applications. A web application can be accessed from anywhere by any person of the world through internet. People use web application for their own purpose through a web system. But it has some probability to be hacked or data stolen by an unauthorized person. There are some common vulnerabilities of a web application. If it is possible to prevent the attack and then web application will be secure to protect user’s information. And then the user also will get the best productivity of web application and they will increase interaction with the web based system. So it is very important to provide a secure web platform. In this paper, some basic steps have been proposed to secure web application form unauthorized access.
