Four security threats that can impact a web server are active wiretapping, phishing expeditions, masquerading and a delay attack. Active wiretapping is when an unauthorized party changes a message stream of information. An example of this would be a deposit that was done online and the amount of the deposit is altered. Phishing expeditions are when a bogus email is sent to someone and they are asked to enter password, username and even credit card information, which would be used fraudulently. Masquerading is when a fake version of a website is sent to a recipient. A delay attack is when the speed of accessing website is slowed down considerably or even to the point where it is inaccessible. I would consider active wiretapping the most important because this could cause altered banking transactions, and this would happen after you made the transaction, without your knowledge. Also, the transaction could leave you without any money left in your bank accounts. The next important threat would be a phishing expedition. This is because there are those that wouldn’t pick up any differences in the webpage and would give their confidential information out. As with wiretapping, this can also cause monetary loss for the victim and the need for you to change your banking information. Masquerading would be the next important because the victim could have online orders changed, as well as the address the order was to be delivered to. Lastly, a delay attach would seem the least

I would rate DDoS as a 4 out of 5 because if your company is well known, it is likely that you will come across DDoS attacks. Over all I would rate this is as a 5 because DDoS can really slow down or shut your company down and deny access to your server. A DDoS can should be a high risk because it can happen at any time, also it shows were your vulnerabilities are.

The first thing that you need to do in order to ensure the information you are giving is secure is to look at the website. The http/: if this does not have

Because Web servers are one of the few system components on a target network that typically communicates with third parties, they are frequently the targets of malicious attacks by intruders. Intruders can easily launch automated attacks against thousands of systems simultaneously to identify the relatively few vulnerable systems.

Your firewall, which is your first line of defense, is susceptible to two common types of attacks. First there are attacks against the firewall
