Application for Detecting and Preventing SQL Injection Attacks using Web Service

Anuja A. Patil, Ketaki H. Pangu

Abstract: Every cyber attack mostly targets the Databases through the firewalls that shield it. Like that SQL injection attacks can target the databases. This type of attacks occurs due to poor input validation code, poor website administration as well as it takes advantage of less security to the databases. In this case the attacker can take advantage of web services applications and can pass a series of unwanted, malicious SQL statements as input and try to execute the back end of the system. So, the proposed model gives methodology to detect and prevent the SQLIAs in databases using XPATH validation systems which is most efficient way.
