web security audit

We have hosted the application web security audit in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about web security audit:

The goal of this project is to build an add-on for browser that passively audits the security posture of the websites that the user is visiting. Assume that the tool is to be used on non-malicious websites, currently not under attack or compromised. Add-on wants to report security misconfigurations, or failure to use best security practices.

- Add-on tries to analysis the commonly vulnerable setting of servers: lack of use of security-relevant headers, including:
- strict-transport-security
- x-xss-protection
- content-security-policy
- x-frame-options
- x-content-type-options

Features:

• It doesn't to interfere with the functioning of the visited website.
• It doesn't tamper with request parameters, or issue requests that were not initiated by the user (it is not active scanning).
• Incrementally generate a report in a separate window.
• Each report entry have a numeric score to indicate approximately its severity, as a way to prioritise further investigation by a human analyst [Common Vulnerability Scoring System] (see on Wikipedia).
