Web attacks can devastate the system within no time. More than 80% attacks are at application layer and almost 90% applications are vulnerable to these attacks. Traditional solution is not capable to protect the web from such attacks.This paper handles different web attacks and also provide some tricks used by hackers to hack the web world similarly it contains an attempt has been made to analyze impact of DOS, SQL injection, Cross site scripting, Sniffing/ Request Encoding on web application in terms of throughput and response time etc. It also provides the best protection mechanisms for the said attacks. Our main aim is to analyze both E-application one with security (proposed E –Tracking system) and another without security and find the impact of all above attacks on both in terms of request time, response time & throughput etc. .
