- Abstract
Today, the web has become an essential part of the world to do our daily work. The website plays a significant role as solitary media is used as a source of information, publication of information, and information processing and communication, especially in Banking, Finance, and Government organizations. Due to current pandemic conditions like covid-19, every human being depends on web applications. However, the security of database-driven web applications stills remains a challenge. This research aims to understand the topmost web vulnerability [2] i.e. SQL Injection and its impact on financial and government organizations. A set of mechanisms intended to transform SQLI vulnerability into a fully-fledged attack is demonstrated on live secure (HTTPS) banking, government-aided, and financial websites. We intimated these organizations and made them conscious of such a dangerous vulnerability. In the end, we also focused on; how to compromise the SQL Injection by analyzing preventive guidelines. That would help organizations to avoid such critical web vulnerability.
