The security of web applications has become a crucial aspect in protecting users’ data and personal information. The potential for vulnerabilities in web applications to result in data theft, loss of trust in service providers, and significant financial loss underscores the significance of robust automated web application scans. This research paper examines the use of tools such as Wapiti, Selenium, and SQLMap for automated web application testing. The primary objective is to assess the efficacy of automated scanning for a specific web application and to establish a benchmark for evaluating the results. The scope of the analysis encompasses the various security aspects covered by these tools and assesses their effectiveness and accuracy in detecting vulnerabilities.

The authors propose the development of a framework using simulation modelling technology. The aim is to simulate the behavior and the interaction and interoperability of the components of the modern communication infrastructure of the national security systems in various crises. The focus is on cyber security and cyber defence, from the point of view of risks and threats to the security of communication infrastructure such as disasters and other crisis situations.
