Re: how to find vulnerabilities in a freeware software

[psiinon <psiinon () gmail com>]

Hi Shiva,

What sort of applications are you talking about?
And written in what languages?

As you have access to the source you can use static source code
analysis tools, but which ones will depend on the languages used.

If they are web applications then you can also use web application
vulnerability scanners.
There are lots of those, but not too surprisingly I'd recommend OWASP
ZAP: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Zed_Attack_Proxy_Project
(I'm the ZAP project lead)

Cheers,

Simon

Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate
In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.  We look at how SSL works, how 
it benefits your company and how your customers can tell if a site is secure. You will find out how to test, purchase, 
install and use a thawte Digital Certificate on your Apache web server. Throughout, best practices for set-up are 
highlighted to help you ensure efficient ongoing management of your encryption keys and digital certificates.
