Description

Ignorance is not bliss when it comes to Web security. Hackers are attacking government sites, breaking into Internet service providers, and may be your site. Not to mention electronic credit card fraud, another thing that you need to worry about. Web Security and Commerce, written by the best-selling authors of Practical UNIX & Internet Security, discusses real risks on the Web, and explains how you can minimize them. Written for Net surfers accessing information as well as for the organizations that are running Web servers, making data and services available on the World Wide Web. Learn about the new Internet protocols and products, and find out risks, threats, and benefits of the online world. Discover the specific risks that can result from Java and JavaScript! In an entertaining approach, the book gives you an insight into digital certificates, digital identification techniques, cryptography, SSL and TLS, legal issues, and more. The appendices include SSL 3.0 Protocol, PICS Specification, and references for more information. Although the book covers the basics of Web security, this text is not meant to be a primer on computer security.
