Advanced ASP.NET Core 3 Security: Understanding Hacks, Attacks, and Vulnerabilities to Secure Your Website

35 minutes

Focuses on securing web applications built with ASP.NET Core. It begins by establishing foundational security concepts, such as the CIA triad (Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability) and common attack methodologies, including reconnaissance and penetration. The book then explores web security principles in depth, covering topics like cryptography (symmetric encryption, hashing, asymmetric encryption), web connection processes (HTTPS, SSL, TLS), and the anatomy of HTTP requests and responses. A significant portion is dedicated to understanding and preventing common attacks like SQL injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). Finally, it provides practical guidance on implementing defenses, addressing secure user input processing, robust authentication and authorization mechanisms, secure data access and storage practices, effective logging for security event detection, and best practices for setting up and configuring a secure hosting environment. The text also discusses various security testing tools and their integration into the software development lifecycle.
