How can I secure my ASP.NET AJAX application?

Ajax seems to give a better user experience, but I'm not so sure if I take the right steps to protect and secure my application.

Is there a checklist of things I must pay attention to?

AJAX applications has the same vulnerabilities than other kind of web application:

  • XSS
  • SQL Injection
  • Privilege Escalation
  • Information Disclosure
  • etc.

But if you want to avoid these common "safe" feel that an AJAX application can give you because normal users will no see the undergoing request you should check the OWASP AJAX Security Guidelines.

AJAX does not add security your application. If what you mean is to protect it from hackers there's a lot of things you might consider.

Authentication Encryption Validation Etc..
