There are 3 modules in this course

Understand the OWASP risk landscape by analyzing core web application vulnerabilities and how attackers exploit them. Learn how to interpret OWASP Top 10 categories, identify common attack patterns such as injection and authentication failures, and map real-world exploitation techniques to application security risks.

Explore client-side and configuration-based vulnerabilities that commonly impact web applications. Understand how attackers exploit weaknesses such as XSS, XXE, insecure deserialization, and misconfigurations. Additionally, gain practical exposure to dynamic security testing using OWASP ZAP, enabling you to identify vulnerabilities in running applications through real-time analysis.

This final module assesses your web application security skills through a roleplay-based, AI-graded assessment, where you identify vulnerabilities, analyze attacks, and apply OWASP principles using tools like OWASP ZAP, while reinforcing OWASP Top 10, web attacks, and secure coding practices.
