You will learn and gradually practice the core concepts of penetration testing and OWASP Top Ten vulnerabilities including injection, broken authentication and access control, security misconfigurations and cross-site scripting (XSS). You will then gain advanced skillset by exploring the methodology of security testing and how to work around security testing as a true security professional. This book also brings cutting-edge coverage on exploiting and detecting vulnerabilities such as authentication flaws, session flaws, access control flaws, input validation flaws etc. You will discover an end-to-end implementation of tools such as nmap, burp suite, and wireshark. You will then learn to practice how to execute web application intrusion testing in automated testing tools and also to analyze vulnerabilities and threats present in the source codes.By the end of this book, you will gain in-depth knowledge of web application testing framework and strong proficiency in exploring and building high secured web applications.WHAT YOU WILL LEARN_ Complete overview of concepts of web penetration testing._ Learn to secure against OWASP TOP 10 web vulnerabilities._ Practice different techniques and signatures for identifying vulnerabilities in the source code of the web application._ Discover security flaws in your web application using most popular tools like nmap and wireshark._ Learn to respond modern automated cyber attacks with the help of expert-led tips and tricks._ Exposure to analysis of vulnerability codes, security automation tools and common security flaws.WHO THIS BOOK IS FORÊÊThis book is for Penetration Testers, ethical hackers, and web application developers. People who are new to security testing will also find this book useful. Basic knowledge of HTML, JavaScript would be an added advantage.TABLE OF CONTENTS1. Why Application Security?2.
