  HTTP Protocol -- DELETE Method

Category: PROTOCOLS      

Application: HTTP Protocol      

The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a networking protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information systems. HTTP is the foundation of data communication for the World Wide Web.

The standards development of HTTP has been coordinated by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), culminating in the publication of a series of Requests for Comments (RFCs), most notably RFC 2616 (June 1999), which defines HTTP/1.1, the version of HTTP in common use.

This SonicWALL signature identifies legitimate HTTP requests containing the HTTP DELETE reqeust method.
