SCREENSHOTS:
Web Security Basics
DESCRIPTION:
Web Security Basics is a beginner-friendly review of essential web security concepts that equips web developers with foundational knowledge about protecting applications and understanding common threats. The repository focuses on real-world security mechanisms and vulnerabilities, explaining protocols like SSL/TLS for encrypted communications, the principles behind CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing), and widely exploited attack categories such as cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgery (CSRF). It also covers token-based authentication patterns like access and refresh tokens, helping developers see how modern web applications attempt to balance security with usability. Rather than providing executable code or automated tools, the project emphasizes conceptual understanding and the reasoning behind why certain defenses matter in web architecture.
Features
- Overview of core web security topics
- Explanations of SSL/TLS and HTTPS principles
- Coverage of CORS and browser security restrictions
- Common web attack descriptions and defenses
- Guidance on token-based authentication
