Web Application Hacking and Security

Understand, Exploit, And Defend Yourself Against Topmost Web Vulnerabilities With A Comprehensive Hands-On, Lab-Based, Guided, Mastery Course Designed By The Team That Brought You CEH

Decoding Web Application Hacking and Security

Web Application Hacking and Security has challenges derived from the engaging iLab environments of EC Council - from Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) to the Certified Penetration Testing Professional (CPENT); from Certified Application Security Engineer (CASE) .Net to Java. But Web Application Hacking and Security goes beyond this to more difficult scenarios as you advance through each problem.

Web Application Hacking and Security is like a Capture-The-Flag (CTF) competitions meant to test your hacking skills. But you can keep on trying until you achieve the goal. Test your skills and work alone to solve complex problems or follow the instructor as they do a walkthroughs to help you learn Web Application Hacking and Security.

Watch your name rise on the leader board, a place where you'll see who's cracking the most challenges, who's making the most progress, who's cranking out the h@ck$!

The Complete Hands-On Guide

to Web Application Hacking and Security

From the team that brought you the Certified Ethical Hacker

Learn by Doing

How You Will Learn:

Complete Walkthrough Instruction & Challenge Based Environment

Unlike many Capture-the-Flag challenges and Vulnerable Virtual Machines, Web Application Hacking and Security provides the challenger with the ability to follow an instructor as they make their way through the challenges. The instructor will present alternatives, do scans, upload malicious payloads, and crack passwords from their home computer just like you.

- But don't rely on the walkthrough; challenge yourself and see how far you can get. Play some of the walkthroughs, then pause and try some more.

In the process, you will learn about application vulnerabilities and web application hacking. Even though this will prove useful for other CTF contests, and in cracking VVMs, it will be even more useful to your career as you learn to defend your applications and progress to Web Application Hacking and Security.

What you will learn:

• Advanced Web Application Penetration Testing
• Advanced SQL Injection (SQLi)
• Reflected, Stored and DOM-based Cross Site Scripting (XSS)
• Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) - GET and POST Methods
• Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
• Security Misconfigurations
• Directory Browsing/Bruteforcing
• CMS Vulnerability Scanning
• Network Scanning
• Auth Bypass
• Web App Enumeration
• Dictionary Attack
• Insecure Direct Object Reference Prevention (IDOR)
• Broken Access Control
• Local File Inclusion (LFI)
• Remote File Inclusion (RFI)
• Arbitrary File Download
• Arbitrary File Upload
• Using Components with Known Vulnerabilities
• Command Injection
• Remote Code Execution

Why Application Security Is Important

Most of the work we do on a day-to-day basis is done with cloud-based apps. Apps that are vulnerable to cyber-attacks.

There are currently 43,986 exploits in the Google Hacking Database and the total number of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) is at a record high with over 18,000 published in 2020. Now, with over 123,454 published vulnerabilities, it is important to learn to defend our applications. And there's no better defence than a good offense.

Test your skills and learn to hack applications with Web Application Hacking and Security. Whether you are a beginner, or an experienced ethical hacker, Web Application Hacking and Security course offers something for all skill levels. You will hack through a variety of challenges from SQL Injection, to Security Misconfigurations, to cross-site-scripting, and more.
