The Best Web Application Security Book To Date (1/1 people found this helpful)
The Web Application Hackers Handbook continues the tradition of the other books in the "Hackers Handbook" series in being specifically written for people who are serious about testing and protecting the security of their network and applications.
As a full time Application tester most of the books I've read have been of little use, typically providing page filler examples of vulnerabilities and techniques that have been and gone or have offered little in the way of new information. This book however is bang up to date and teaches assessment techniques that will still be current for a long time to come.
If you're hoping to pursue a career in security, need the best reference available, or are trying to get to grips with the threats posed to your web application, you should buy this book.
At our organisation all of our technical staff have a copy and have all found it useful.
