Web Application Penetration Testing

Course details

Web applications are critical in every modern organization. Business owners should be worried with the security of their web applications testing and securing them before bad guys could compromise them, damage business functionality, and steal data. 

LufSec Web Application Penetration Testing course helps students move beyond push-button scanning to professional, thorough, high-value web application penetration testing.

There is no such a "patch Tuesday" for custom web applications, so major industry studies find that web application flaws play a major role in significant breaches and intrusions. Adversaries increasingly focus on these high-value targets either by directly abusing public-facing applications or by focusing on web apps as targets after an initial break-in.

Modern cyber defense requires a realistic and thorough understanding of web application security issues. Anyone can learn to sling a few web hacks, but effective web application penetration testing requires something deeper.

LufSec Web Application Penetration Testing course enables students to assess a web application's security posture and convincingly demonstrate the impact of inadequate security that plagues most organizations.

Students will come to understand major web application flaws and their exploitation and, most importantly, learn a field-tested and repeatable process to consistently find these flaws and convey what they have learned to their organizations. Even technically gifted security geeks often struggle with helping organizations understand risk in terms relatable to business. Much of the art of penetration testing has less to do with learning how adversaries are breaking in than it does with convincing an organization to take the risk seriously and employ appropriate countermeasures. The goal of LufSec Web Application Penetration Testing course is to better secure organizations through penetration testing, and not just show off hacking skills. The course will help you demonstrate the true impact of web application flaws through exploitation.

In addition to high-quality course content, LufSec Web Application Penetration Testing course focuses heavily on in-depth, hands-on labs to ensure that students can immediately apply all they learn.
