 Web application - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Web applications are popular due to the ubiquity of the browser as a client, sometimes called a thin client.
While many web applications are written directly in PHP or mod_perl, there are many web application frameworks which automate the process, by allowing the programmer to define a higher-level description of the program.
Web applications powered by embedded web servers have also become commonplace as the user interfaces for configuring network components such as servers, switches, routers, and gateways.

 Rands In Repose: The Web Application Leap
We don't actually need to kill these controls because they do serve a purpose, but the web application developer should be able to choose when they're available because the developer is designing the application and they are incented to do what's right for their users.
These controls are (rightfully) designed around the idea of the web as a collection of pages, but an application is collection of objects where you, the user, are guided by a well designed interface to get your job done.
This means you have access to whatever information your web application manages from any Internet computer on the Planet Earth as long as you can remember your name and password.

 Trends in Web Application Security
However, it is still too early for application tools to incorporate sophisticated integration, as web application security analysis still lies primarily in the hands of security professionals such as penetration testers, QA engineers, and auditors.
The current use of most web application security testing tools is still focused on the penetration tester/information security professional, with use being extended for QA and audit professionals.
An increase in the usage of web applications is directly related to an increase in the number of security incidents for them.

 Web application firewalls protect data
The Web server's response arrives at the application firewall, is associated with the same session the request belongs to, is parsed, and policy update (new links that are allowed) is extracted and associated to the session.
Application firewalls install between the firewall and the application server, functioning at Layer 7 of the ISO model.
Downstream requests are channeled through the application firewall, and in the case of a positive model, parsing occurs to build the policy.
