Most attack types involve injection of malicious content into the data processed by the Web application (e.g. HTTP parameter values, session attributes, cookies, etc). The large number of severe attacks reported in recent years on banking applications, as well as corporate and government Web sites, has created a special motivation to develop analysis tools for detecting vulnerabilities in Web applications. In the last five years, Tripp has been a leading member of an IBM project with this goal, collaborating with researchers at IBM and in academia. In this talk, he will present several research challenges that were addressed as part of this ambitious project, as well as solutions developed in response to these challenges.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EOmer Tripp is a graduate student at Tel-Aviv University, soon to complete his studies under the supervision of Prof. Mooly Sagiv.
