Design and experimental evaluation of Web Content Verification and Recovery (WCVR) system : a survivable security system

We have designed a novel security system, called Web Content Verification and Recovery (WCVR) system to solve unauthorised tampering on server-side web content. Our solution is implemented as a prototype. This prototype consists of three mechanisms: web register, HTTP interface, and response hashing. In this paper, we have conducted a set of experiential studies to meet the security and performance objectives. The results of an experimental study have shown that the proposed system (WCVR) provides a high coverage of detection and protection, and a low level of overhead times.
