A simple tool to make websites more secure and curb hacking

Posted by in categories: cybercrime/malcode, electronics

An international team of researchers has developed a scanning tool to make websites less vulnerable to hacking and cyberattacks.

The black box assessment prototype, tested by engineers in Australia, Pakistan and the UAE, is more effective than existing web scanners which collectively fail to detect the top 10 weaknesses in web applications.

UniSA mechanical and systems engineer Dr. Yousef Amer is one of the co-authors of a new international paper that describes the development of the tool in the wake of escalating global cyberattacks.
