The “Content Security Policy (CSP)” kit covers several aixes related to the tremendous technological development that the world is witnessing, which in some of its reflections leads to the exposure of web pages to hacking, theft, manipulation and exploitation by cyber hackers, which prompted companies to adopt a series of advanced technical mechanisms to reduce cyber attacks that have become a part of the life of Internet surfers who conduct their daily transactions from conversations, business and correspondence, and more.
One of the technical mechanisms that has been adopted is known as the Content Security Policy (CSP), which is a browser security mechanism that aims to mitigate cyber attacks such as XSS attacks, It works by restricting the spread of online materials such as text and images that are easy to download, and also restricting the possibility of hacking and theft. XSS attacks, or cross-site scripting, are attacks that target text and image materials, they are a web security vulnerability that allows a cyber attacker to hack users by exploiting vulnerabilities in applications and programs.
XSS attacks allow cyber hackers to circumvent and disguise themselves as victim users and implement the same procedures that a regular user would follow to access the data of the targeted victims, For example, if the original user can access the applications, the hacker can fully control all the data and functions of those applications; Then the importance of a content security policy becomes apparent in protecting textual materials and images from this type of cyber attack.
The topics of the training kit include the following:
