Maximum apache security. A hackers's guide to protecting your apache Web server (with CD-Rom)

Langue : Anglais
Couverture de l’ouvrage Maximum apache security. A hackers's guide to protecting your apache Web server (with CD-Rom)

A complete guide to securing the worlds most popular Web server, written by the original Maximum Security author.

  • Details system holes, hacker attack methods, and tools for breaching an Apache-based Web site.
  • Apache configuration, administration, and development can be extremely complex-and if improperly done can leave a Web site vulnerable to attack.
  • Written by the same best-selling author of Maximum Security and Maximum Linux Security.
With more than 65 percent of Web sites using the Apache Web server and the Apache-based open source Web development environment --and with the risk of sabotage greater than ever--Apache administrators and developers need to know how to build and maintain secure Web servers and Web applications. Yet most of the currently available Apache books lack detailed information on important Web administration topics like security. Maximum Apache Security details the complex security weaknesses and risks of Apache, and provides hands-on solutions for keeping a Web site secure and buttressed against intruders. It includes up-to-date coverage of both Apache 2.0 as well as Apache 1.3.

Anonymous, author of the controversial bestsellers Maximum Security and Maximum Linux Security, is an experienced computer hacker who was convicted of a series of financial crimes after developing a technique to circumvent bank security in automatic teller machines. He now works as a writer, trainer, Internet and Unix site manager, and security consultant in California.
