So, you have built your secured web application. You have enabled ASP.NET’s handy authentication and authorization features. But have you done enough? No, not at all. What happens if you forget to deploy the web.config controlling access to the application’s administrative folder? Or if an attacker gains access to the box by exploting your database and references your business logic layers? Or if an attacker finds a SQL injection and starts writing directly to the database? In many cases, the short answer is “bad things” oftentimes leading to unemployment.
But it need not be so easy for an attacker. There are a number of tactics one can use to extend security beyond the web interface. Like a good army, you must practice defense in depth in order to protect the application.
