Web Application Architecture Detection Task

A Web Application Architecture Detection Task is a reverse-engineering task that identifies web application architecture patterns through web application behavioral signature analysis to infer web application underlying system designs.

• AKA: Web App Architecture Analysis Task, Application Architecture Discovery Task.
• Context:
  • It can typically recognize Web Application Framework Patterns through web application behavioral signature analysis of web application response characteristics.
  • It can typically identify Web Application Database Choices through web application response pattern analysis of web application data access patterns.
  • It can typically detect Web Application Authentication Frameworks through web application security behavior analysis of web application session management patterns.
  • It can typically discover Web Application Caching Strategys through web application performance signature analysis of web application response timings.
  • It can typically determine Web Application Deployment Architectures through web application infrastructure signature analysis of web application server configurations.
  • ...
  • It can often facilitate Web Application Technology Stack Identification through web application artifact analysis of web application technology markers.
  • It can often provide Web Application API Architecture Discovery through web application endpoint analysis of web application interface designs.
  • It can often implement Web Application Security Architecture Assessment through web application protection mechanism analysis of web application security implementations.
  • It can often support Web Application Performance Architecture Analysis through web application optimization pattern analysis of web application resource handlings.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Basic Web Application Architecture Detection Task to being an Advanced Web Application Architecture Detection Task, depending on its web application detection sophistication.
  • It can range from being a Single-Layer Web Application Architecture Detection Task to being a Multi-Layer Web Application Architecture Detection Task, depending on its web application analysis depth.
  • It can range from being a Manual Web Application Architecture Detection Task to being an Automated Web Application Architecture Detection Task, depending on its web application automation level.
  • ...
  • It can integrate with Web Application Scanning Tools for web application signature collection.
  • It can connect to Web Application Testing Frameworks for web application behavior analysis.
  • It can support Web Application Security Assessment Tools for web application vulnerability detection.
  • ...
• Examples:
  • Web Application Framework Detection Methods, such as:
    • Frontend Framework Detections, such as:
      • React Framework Detection Task for web application React signature identification.
      • Angular Framework Detection Task for web application Angular signature identification.
      • Vue Framework Detection Task for web application Vue signature identification.
    • Backend Framework Detections, such as:
      • Django Framework Detection Task for web application Django signature identification.
      • Rails Framework Detection Task for web application Rails signature identification.
      • Express Framework Detection Task for web application Express signature identification.
  • Web Application Database Architecture Analysiss, such as:
    • Relational Database Detections, such as:
      • PostgreSQL Detection Task for web application PostgreSQL signature identification.
      • MySQL Detection Task for web application MySQL signature identification.
    • NoSQL Database Detections, such as:
      • MongoDB Detection Task for web application MongoDB signature identification.
      • Redis Detection Task for web application Redis signature identification.
  • Web Application Authentication Architecture Analysiss, such as:
    • OAuth Implementation Detections, such as:
      • OAuth 2.0 Flow Detection Task for web application OAuth security architecture identification.
      • JWT Token Detection Task for web application JWT authentication architecture identification.
    • Session Management Detections, such as:
      • Cookie-Based Session Detection Task for web application cookie session architecture identification.
      • Token-Based Session Detection Task for web application token session architecture identification.
  • ...
• Counter-Examples:
  • Web Application Functionality Testing Tasks, which focus on web application feature validation rather than web application architecture identification.
  • Web Application Performance Testing Tasks, which focus on web application speed measurement rather than web application architecture discovery.
  • Web Application Security Testing Tasks, which focus on web application vulnerability exploitation rather than web application architecture analysis.
  • Static Code Analysis Tasks, which analyze web application source code rather than web application behavioral signatures.
