SQL INJECTION DETECTION & PREVENTION

In recent times hacking attacks is a very common and huge issue all over the world. Many large MNC’s like Google, Apple, Microsoft etc. are investing millions of dollars to stop these types of Hacking and penetration attacks. Database driven web application are threaten by SQL Injection Attacks (SQLIAs) because this type of attack can compromise confidentiality and integrity of information in databases. Only a few techniques those take the advantage of these SQL vulnerabilities are known by the researchers. Hence, the solutions available so far solve only a few SQL related injections. This paper uncovers this problem to the research community by means of a chronological review of various SQL injection attacks. We analyse the best ways to protect ourselves from these attacks. We have also analysed and presented the various existing detection and prevention techniques against the SQL injection attacks.
