Web Application Hacking and Security

Why Mastery of Web Application is Important

Most of the work we do on a day-to-day basis uses cloud-based apps that are vulnerable to cyber-attacks. There are currently 43,986 exploits (and growing) 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 alone!

Now, with so many published vulnerabilities, it is important to learn to defend and secure your web applications. Traditional protections like firewalls alone do not secure web applications. Defenders need a deep understanding of the most critical security risks to web applications such as the OWASP Top 10. And what better way to learn to gain familiarity and defend than to attack!

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$!
