Assignment : Errors Leading to Information
In this module, you explored the concept of errors that lead to leakage of information.
When an error occurs during an online web application, an error message is common. Specialized hackers are able to take these error messages and learn more about the systems and how they operate. In this discussion, we will discuss information disclosure.
Tasks:
In a minimum of 250 words, respond to the following:
Describe stack trace.
Identify the information that hackers can obtain through error messages.
Discuss how hackers use these messages to obtain valuable information into the actual systems.
Your response should rely upon at least two sources from professional literature-articles from peer-reviewed journals and relevant textbooks.
Write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and use accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
