    Integrity: Modification of user data Confidentiality: Theft of info from server Denial of Service: Filling up disk or memory Authentication: Impersonation of legitimate users

    Web Traffic Security Approaches


    *Number of approaches to provide web security are possible *Similar approaches in service and mechanisms *IPsec: General purpose solution *SSL ( Secure Socket Layer ) *TLS ( Transport Layer Security )
