Abstract
The internet is a place full of threats for any organization or just ordinary users. Hackers find loopholes in the security of applications, attack their target, and create havoc. Major hack attacks that get covered in the news are usually web-based attacks, which are targeted as big multinational corporations. Hackers target multinational corporations either for its databases or for ransom, which they demand to not cripple their network and resources. With increasing forensic challenges, web attack forensics remains a big part of cybercrime.
