Also known as a web app, a web application is software running on a web server that is accessed by users via a browser called a client. Google Docs is a common example of a web application.
Web applications are by nature Internet facing and running continuously so present an avenue of attack when coded with vulnerabilities or misconfigurations. Also they will oftentimes feature a front-end attached to one or more backend systems like authorization, authentication, accounting, directory service, or databases which are attractive targets for attackers.
The 2024 State of Web Application Security Testing report analyzes responses from hundreds of cybersecurity professionals in both the US and the UK, providing valuable insights into the current state of web application security testing.
