Abstract
The successful growth of Internet, lead to application of World Wide Web (WWW) technologies in current IT systems. One of the traditional high-level objectives of IT security is integrity. We focus our attention on integrity in the WWW environment. We outline content and context of integrity testing as well as specific problems that need to be solved. Most of our attention is devoted, in a separate section, to heuristic approach to integrity testing.
