Why should you attend?
Web Penetration Testing is an essential skill set for security professionals seeking to identify and exploit vulnerabilities within web applications. This comprehensive course delves into the intricacies of various web technologies, equipping participants with a deep understanding of the HTTP protocol, encoding schemes, and state management mechanisms. Participants will explore the OWASP Top 10, CWE, and SANS 25 to comprehend the most critical web security risks. The course progresses by covering information gathering techniques using WHOIS, DNS reconnaissance, and open source intelligence (OSINT). It also addresses SSL configurations and interception proxies like BurpSuite Pro and Zed Attack Proxy. Learners will engage in content discovery, session testing, authentication bypasses, and utilize tools like fuff and Mutillidae to brute force unlinked files and directories. File-related vulnerabilities such as Local File Inclusion (LFI), Remote File Inclusion (RFI), unrestricted file uploads, and remote code execution are thoroughly examined. Injection attacks including SQL injection, command injection, directory traversal, insecure deserialization, and XML External Entity (XXE) exploitation form a core component of this curriculum. Moreover, learners will gain insights into advanced attack vectors like Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), logic flaws, API attacks, AJAX security issues, and the use of Python for penetration testing. Finally, the course covers the effective use of industry-standard tools such as Nmap, WPScan, Metasploit, BurpSuite Pro Scanner, along with strategies for website auditing and post-assessment reporting.
