OWASP Ruby on Rails Security

BY Heiko Webers

in Documents, Papers
1 min read
Web application frameworks are made to help developers building web applications.
Some of them also help you securing the web application. In fact one framework is not more secure than another: If you use it correctly, you will be able to build secure apps with many frameworks. Ruby on Rails has some clever helper methods, for example against SQL injection, so that this is hardly a problem. It‘s nice to see all Rails applications I audited, had a good level of security. In general there is no such thing as plug-n-play security. It depends on the people using it, and sometimes on the development method. And it depends on all layers of a web application environment: The back-end storage, the web server and the web application itself (and possibly other layers or applications). The Gartner Group however estimates that 75% of attacks are at the web application layer, and found out “that out of 300 audited sites, 97% are vulnerable to attack”. This is because web applications are relatively easy to attack, as they are simple to understand and manipulate, even by the lay person.
