Web Application Penetration Testing Course

Penetration Testing and Web Security Testing (WST) is the Security testing systems for vulnerabilities or security openings in corporate sites and web applications. These vulnerabilities leave sites open to abuse.

Through this course of Penetration Testing and Web Security Testing, the understudies will come to comprehend real web application and above all, gain proficiency with a field-tried and repeatable procedure to reliably discover it.

Even technically gifted security geeks often struggle with helping organizations understand risk in terms relatable to business. Much of the art of penetration testing has less to do with learning how adversaries are breaking in than it does with convincing an organization to take the risk seriously and employ appropriate countermeasures.
