SQL Injection Attack
iSpeech.org
SQL injection is an application layer attack technique used by hackers to steal data from organizations by targeting web-based applications.
SQL injection is one of the methods by which hackers attack the underlying data storage of a web application by taking advantage of improper coding styles or insufficient database privileges assigned to the application user who accesses this database. SQL injection arises because user input fields - if not checked correctly at the application - allow SQL statements to pass through and directly question the database, allowing attackers to tamper with or even delete existing data, spoof identity, change administrative rights and in some cases void transactions and change balances.
