Welcome to Web Application Penetration Testing!

Web applications are everywhere, from your bank to your favorite social media site. But with this ubiquity comes risk. Web Application Penetration Testing (WAPT) is the art of ethically trying to break into these applications to find their weaknesses before malicious attackers do.

What You'll Learn:

• The Pentesting Mindset: How to think like an attacker.
• Methodologies: Structured approaches like OWASP WSTG.
• Key Vulnerability Classes: XSS, SQL Injection, CSRF, SSRF, Insecure Deserialization, etc.
• Tools of the Trade: Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, Nmap, and more.
• Reporting: How to communicate your findings effectively.

This module is hands-on. We'll be looking at real-world scenarios (simulated, of course!) and getting our hands dirty. No actual websites will be harmed in the making of this module... unless they're specifically designed for it!
