Web Application Hacking: What are the Basics You Must Know

Imagine your life without your phone, laptop or the cloud. Now imagine someone hacking into those devices, stealing your data or locking you out entirely. Scary, right? That's why everyone needs to be aware of hacking techniques and how vulnerable our systems can be.

Here's the good news: you can fight back! This course will teach you the in-demand skill of Ethical Hacking. But what exactly is that?

Ethical Hackers are the good guys in the cybersecurity world. They're security professionals who legally perform penetration tests (simulated attacks) on systems, networks, and yes, even Web Applications. Their goal? To find weaknesses before the bad guys do.

Think of it like this: your house has a security system but would you know if there's a hidden back door? An Ethical Hacker is like a security inspector, identifying those back doors and showing you how to fix them.

Why is Ethical Hacking Important for Web Applications?

We live in a web-dependent world. Our bank accounts, social media profiles and even our shopping habits are stored on Web Applications. These applications are complex and constantly evolving, which means new vulnerabilities appear all the time.

Ethical Hackers who specialize in web applications understand these vulnerabilities and how to exploit them – but for good! During this course, you'll learn the steps Ethical Hackers follow:

• Reconnaissance: Gathering information about the web application, like its purpose and technology.
• Enumeration: Identifying weaknesses in the application's defenses.
• Vulnerability Analysis: Understanding the severity of the weaknesses and how they can be exploited.
• Exploitation: Simulating an attack to demonstrate the vulnerability.
• Reporting: Documenting the findings and proposing solutions to fix the vulnerabilities.

By learning these steps, you'll gain a powerful skillset. You'll understand how hackers think, what tools they use and most importantly, how to stop them.
