Abstract | SQL injection is one of the major threats to the security of the web applications. Attackers try to gain unauthorized access to the database, which has vital and private information of the users. Many researchers have provided various techniques and practices to protect the web applications from attackers. There is a plethora of techniques available to perform SQL injection and usually not everyone is familiar with every attack. Hence, this kind of attack is still the most prevalent. In this paper, we have presented the types of SQL injections attacks and most dominant ways to prevent them. |
