Secure the Stack: Web Application Security Engineering: Injection, Auth, and Defense Beyond OWASP - Softcover
Synopsis
Every modern application is a target.
From startups to global enterprises, web applications face constant pressure from attackers seeking to exploit vulnerabilities, abuse business logic, steal credentials, and compromise sensitive data.
“Secure the Stack” is a practical, engineering focused guide to building and maintaining secure web applications throughout the software development lifecycle.
This book teaches developers how to identify security risks, design effective defenses, and build applications that remain resilient against real world threats.
Why web application security matters
Security incidents rarely happen because of a single mistake.
They often emerge from a combination of weaknesses such as:
- injection vulnerabilities
- broken authentication systems
- insecure session management
- authorization flaws
- sensitive data exposure
- insecure APIs
- security misconfigurations
- business logic abuse
Understanding these risks is essential for building trustworthy software.
What you will learn
- fundamentals of web application security
- common vulnerability classes and attack surfaces
- secure authentication and authorization design
- protecting against injection attacks
- session and identity management best practices
- API security engineering
- secure data handling and encryption strategies
- browser security controls and defenses
- threat modeling and risk assessment
- security testing and verification workflows
Beyond checklists and compliance
Throughout the book, you will learn how to:
- design secure application architectures
- identify vulnerabilities early in development
- strengthen authentication and access control systems
- reduce the likelihood of security incidents
- integrate security into engineering workflows
- build security awareness across development teams
Each chapter focuses on practical engineering decisions used in production environments.
Practical applications
- SaaS platforms
- enterprise web applications
