The Internet traffic, today, comprises majorly of Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The first version of HTTP protocol was standardized in 1991, followed by a major upgrade in May 2015. HTTP/2 is the next generation of HTTP protocol that promises to resolve short-comings of HTTP 1.1 and provide features to greatly improve upon its performance.

There has been a 1000\% increase in the cyber crimes rate over the past two years. Since HTTP/2 is a relatively new protocol with a very high acceptance rate (around 68\% of all HTTPS traffic), it gives rise to an urgent need of analyzing this protocol from a security vulnerability perspective.

In this thesis, I have systematically analyzed the security concerns in HTTP/2 protocol - starting from the specifications, testing all variation of frames (basic entity in HTTP/2 protocol) and every new introduced feature.

In this thesis, I also propose the Context Aware fuzz Testing for Binary communication protocols methodology. Using this testing methodology, I was able to discover a serious security susceptibility using which an attacker can carry out a denial-of-service attack on Apache
