Full courseThis course provides tools and methodology for conducting a security assessment of a web application using a "black box" approach, simulating the activities performed by a potential attacker. It includes practical exercises conducted on intentionally vulnerable apps.
The objective of this course is to provide participants with the knowledge and practical experience necessary to perform effective web application security assessments. Adopting a "black box" testing methodology, the training will guide participants through the process of evaluating the security posture of web applications, without requiring prior access to the underlying source code. Participants will be introduced to a suite of tools and techniques, enabling them to systematically uncover and address potential security weaknesses. The course features interactive exercises and real-world scenarios, ensuring that the learning experience is both engaging and immediately applicable in the field of application security. This course is aimed at auditors and security specialists.
