    Security testing is performed to figure out the security flaws and vulnerabilities in software. The rise in online transactions and advancing technology makes security testing an inevitable part of the softwaredevelopment process. This is the best way to determine potential threats in the software when performed regularly. Following are the most vulnerable threats that can be detected early with the help of software testing:   Cross-site scripting:  XSS attacks inject client-side malicious scripts into a website and use the website as a distribution method. such vulnerabilities require the user to initiate some type of interaction through social engineering or visiting a specific page.   Sensitive data exposure: Confidential data disclosure is one of the mostcommon vulnerabilities .
