### Security Testing Strategy

#### OWASP Top 10 Testing Focus
| Risk | Test Content | Test Method | Priority |
|------|--------------|-------------|----------|
| A01-Broken Access Control | Privilege escalation, unauthorized access | Manual+Tools | P0 |
| A02-Cryptographic Failures | Data transmission, storage encryption | Configuration check | P0 |
| A03-Injection | SQL, NoSQL, command injection | Automated scanning | P0 |
| A04-Insecure Design | Threat modeling, security controls | Design review | P1 |
| A05-Security Misconfiguration | System, application configuration | Configuration audit | P1 |

#### Layered Testing Strategy
- **Application Layer Security (40%):** Web/API security vulnerability testing
- **Data Layer Security (25%):** Data encryption and access control
- **Network Layer Security (20%):** Network protocols and transmission security
- **System Layer Security (15%):** Operating system and infrastructure security

### Core Security Testing

#### ST-001: Authentication and Authorization Testing
**Test Objectives:** Verify user authentication and permission control mechanisms
**Test Scenarios:**
- **Weak Password Testing:** Password complexity and policy verification
- **Session Management:** Session timeout, fixation, hijacking testing
- **Permission Verification:** Vertical and horizontal privilege escalation testing
- **Multi-Factor Authentication:** MFA mechanism effectiveness testing

**Test Methods:**
```bash
# Permission testing example
# 1. No authentication access test
curl -X GET "https://api.example.com/admin/users"
# Expected: 401 Unauthorized

# 2. Privilege escalation test
curl -X GET "https://api.example.com/admin/users" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer user_token"
# Expected: 403 Forbidden

ST-002: Input Validation Testing

Test Objectives: Verify input data validation and filtering mechanisms Test Scenarios:

• SQL Injection: Database query injection testing
• XSS Attacks: Cross-site scripting attack testing
• Command Injection: Operating system command injection testing
• File Upload: Malicious file upload testing

Test Cases:

# SQL injection testing
curl -X POST "https://example.com/login" \
  -d "username=admin' OR '1'='1'--&password=any"

# XSS testing
curl -X POST "https://example.com/comment" \
  -d "content=<script>alert('XSS')</script>"

# File upload testing
curl -X POST "https://example.com/upload" \
  -F "file=@malicious.php"

ST-003: Data Protection Testing

Test Objectives: Verify sensitive data protection measures Test Scenarios:

• Transmission Encryption: HTTPS/TLS configuration testing
• Storage Encryption: Database sensitive data encryption
• Data Leakage: Sensitive data leakage in error messages
• Backup Security: Data backup security testing

Verification Methods:

• SSL/TLS Check: Use SSL Labs to test HTTPS configuration
• Database Check: Verify sensitive field encrypted storage
• Error Pages: Check if error messages leak sensitive information
• Log Audit: Check if logs record sensitive data

Automated Security Testing

Vulnerability Scanning

Tool Selection:

• OWASP ZAP: Open source web application security scanning
• Burp Suite: Professional web security testing platform
• Nessus: Network vulnerability scanner

Scan Configuration:

# OWASP ZAP automated scan configuration
zap_scan:
  target: "https://example.com"
  scan_type: "full"
  auth:
    method: "form"
    login_url: "/login"
    username: "testuser"
    password: "testpass"
  rules:
    - sql_injection: enabled
    - xss: enabled
    - csrf: enabled

Security Testing Integration

CI/CD Integration:

# Jenkins Pipeline security testing
pipeline {
    stages {
        stage('Security Scan') {
            steps {
                sh 'zap-baseline.py -t https://example.com'
                sh 'bandit -r src/ -f json -o security-report.json'
            }
        }
        stage('Security Report') {
            steps {
                publishHTML([
                    reportDir: 'reports',
                    reportFiles: 'security-report.html',
                    reportName: 'Security Report'
                ])
            }
        }
    }
}

Penetration Testing

• Attack Chain: Build complete attack paths

Penetration Testing Tools:

# Port scanning
nmap -sS -sV -O target.com

# Web directory scanning
dirb https://target.com /usr/share/dirb/wordlists/common.txt

# SQL injection testing
sqlmap -u "https://target.com/page?id=1" --dbs

## Execution Instructions

1. Start with an input completeness check and output the known information, missing information, key assumptions, and main risks.
2. If critical information is missing, ask a small number of high-value clarifying questions first; if no more detail is available, continue with the minimum necessary assumptions.
3. Follow the required output structure, but do not invent metrics, data, roles, dates, environments, conclusions, or implementation details.
4. Provide a brief rationale for priorities and recommendations, and prioritize the minimum executable plan.
5. Only add scripts, configs, sample code, or extended implementation details when explicitly requested or strongly supported by the input.

**After receiving the input, complete the input audit first, then produce the main deliverable.**
