Book Description:
Cyber-criminals have your web applications in their crosshairs. They search for and exploit common security mistakes in your web application to steal user data. Learn how you can secure your Node.js applications, database and web server to avoid these security holes. Discover the primary attack vectors against web applications, and implement security best practices and effective countermeasures. Coding securely will make you a stronger web developer and analyst, and you'll protect your users.Bake security into your code from the start. See how to protect your Node.js applications at every point in the software development life cycle, from setting up the application environment to configuring the database and adding new functionality. You'll follow application security best practices and analyze common coding errors in applications as you work through the real-world scenarios in this book.Protect your database calls from database injection attacks and learn how to securely handle user authentication within your application. Configure your servers securely and build in proper access controls to protect both the web application and all the users using the service. Defend your application from denial of service attacks. Understand how malicious actors target coding flaws and lapses in programming logic to break in to web applications to steal information and disrupt operations. Work through examples illustrating security methods in Node.js. Learn defenses to protect user data flowing in and out of the application.By the end of the book, you'll understand the world of web application security, how to avoid building web applications that attackers consider an easy target, and how to increase your value as a programmer.What You Need:In this book we will be using mainly Node.js. The book covers the basics of JavaScript and Node.js. Since most Web applications have some kind of a database backend, examples in this book work with some of the more popular databases, including MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis.
Porting PHP to Node.js
If you're an experienced Php developer, you already have a head start on learning how to write Node.js code. In this book, author Daniel Howard demonstrates the remarkable similarities between the two languages, and shows you how to port your entire Php web application to Node.js. By comparing specific Php features with their Node counterparts, you will also discover how to refactor and improve existing Php 4 or Php 5 source code. At the end, you will have two fully functional codebases to provide to your users. You can update both of them simultaneously, using this book as a reference to important aspects of Php and Node.js.Use a simple Node.js framework to convert individual Php pages to Node.js files Refactor blocking Php source code to non-blocki...
A Hands-On Guide to Building Web Applications in JavaScript
Learning Node.js A Hands-On Guide to Building Web Applications in JavaScript Node.js makes it far easier to create fast, compact, and reliable web/network applications and web servers, and is rapidly becoming indispensable to modern web developers. Learning Node.js brings together the knowledge and JavaScript code you need to build master the Node.js platform and build server-side applications with extraordinary speed and scalability. You'll start by installing and running Node.js, understanding the extensions it uses, and quickly writing your first app. Next, building on the basics, you'll write more capable application servers and extend them with today's most powerful Node.js tools and modules. Finally, you'll discover today's best practices f...
Web Development
Node.js, MongoDB and AngularJS Web Development The definitive guide to building JavaScript-based Web applications from server to browser Node.js, MongoDB, and AngularJS are three new web development technologies that together provide an easy to implement, fully integrated web development stack. Node.js is a leading server-side programming environment, MongoDB is the most popular NoSQL database, and AngularJS is quickly becoming the leading framework for MVC-based front-end development. Together they allow web programmers to create high-performance sites and applications built completely in JavaScript, from server to client. Node.js, MongoDB and AngularJS Web Development is a complete guide for web programmers who want to integrate these three t...
