Abstract
An automated Web security analysis system and process identifies security vulnerabilities in a target Internet Web site by parsing through the target Web sit to search for a predetermined list of common security vulnerabilities. The process is recursive, exploiting information gathered throughout the process to search for additional security vulnerabilities. A prioritized list of detected security vulnerabilities is then presented to a user, including preferably a list of recommendations to eliminate the detected security vulnerabilities.
