Description
Summary:From the authors of the bestselling Hack Proofing Your Network! Yahoo!, E-Bay, Amazon. Three of the most popular, well-established, and lavishly funded Web sites in existence, yet hackers managed to penetrate their security systems and cripple these and many other Web giants for almost 24 hours. E-Commerce giants, previously thought to be impenetrable are now being exposed as incredibly vulnerable. This book will give e-commerce architects and engineers insight into the tools and techniques used by hackers to compromise their sites.

Hack Proofing Your E-Commerce Site will provide computer architects and engineers all of the information they need to design and implement security measures. * Heightened media awareness of malicious attacks against "secure" sites guarantees a wide audience * Uses forensics-based analysis to give the reader insight to the mind of a hacker. This understanding is crucial for security professionals to defend against attacks.
