The development of countermeasures against session hijacking

Abstract

This article provides information about Session Hijacking and discusses countermeasures to prevent Session Hijacking attacks. In modern web applications and sites much vulnerability, which developers often do not pay attention to, are occurred. The paper presents a practical implementation of one of the attacks (MITM), and also proposes methods to counteract and protect against most types of attacks. The main purpose of this paper is to study Session Hijacking attacks and to propose countermeasures against them and existing vulnerabilities.
