Google Dorking is also known as Google hacking and is one of the most used techniques by hackers in searching for any information that has been inadvertently exposed to the internet. This is generally done based on advanced search operators as indexed by search engines. While a great tool for cyber professionals, ethical hackers and researchers, it can be risky when used in the wrong way.

SQL Injection represents the most common web application vulnerability, and justifiably so: it is the most dangerous. Attackers can inject SQL code into victims' sites and access databases, potentially allowing unauthorized access and data compromise or, worst case, full-blown compromise of the site. Shielding one's website against SQL injections would mean having to understand how SQL injections work and implement preventive measures against them.

Security comes first in the growing and fast-paced world of software development. After the acceptance of open-source components and third-party libraries, the next big challenge is: how to ensure that the dependencies are secure, trusted, and compliant? This is where the SCA security plays a much-needed role in guarding the software and its developers. SCA security tools allow developers to manage open-source components used in the applications.

CSRF attack or Cross-site request forgery is a very dangerous and stealthy web security vulnerability that exploits trust from a user's browser for a web application. A successful CSRF attack deceives an authenticated user into performing some operations without his consent-like account modification or payment or financial transaction against his will. Most alarming in such cases is that CSRF attacks usually remain unknown for end-users that make defending against them difficult.
