Web Security and Enhancement Using SSL
Authors(2) :-Ajay Singh, Ramesh Loar With the development of e-commerce, ssl protocol is more and more widely applied to various network services. It is one of key technologies to keep user's data in secure transmission via internet. This document majorly focuses on sslstrip which generates the most recent attack in the secure network connections. It strips out all the secure connections to unsecure plain connection. In this article we depict this attack and to nullify it, we have proposed a technique cum practical solution to strengthen data security by developing mozilla-firefox add-on and servlet code which will strengthen our defense against the https hijacking attacks. Internet users today depend daily on HTTPS for secure communication with sites they intend to visit. Over the years, many attacks on HTTPS and the certi?cate trust model it uses have been hypothesized, executed, and/or evolved. Meanwhile the number of browser-trusted (and thus, de facto, user-trusted) certi?cate authorities has proliferated, while the due diligence in baseline certi?cate issuance has declined. We survey and categorize prominent security issues with HTTPS and provide a systematic treatment of the history and on-going challenges, intending to provide context for future directions.
