Attacks against web apps range from targeted database manipulation to large-scale network disruption. Let’s explore some of the common methods of attack or “vectors” commonly exploited.

Cross site scripting (XSS) - XSS is a vulnerability that allows an attacker to inject client-side scripts into a web-page in order to access important information directly, impersonate the user, or trick the user into revealing important information.

SQL injection (SQi)- SQi is a method by which an attacker exploits vulnerabilities in the way a database executes search queries. Attackers use SQi to gain access to unauthorized information, modify or create new user permissions, or otherwise manipulate or destroy sensitive data.
