Ethical Hacking for the Everyday Developer

Security is the foremost concern for all organizations both big and small. The movement toward the cloud and virtualization has led to an increased level of threats and thus a demand for Ethical Hackers. With this tutorial, you'll be able to extend your skills as a developer with Ethical Hacking techniques and enhance the security of your applications.

The course starts by explaining what application security is and the various threats it faces. We then highlight vulnerabilities that impact organizations the most and emphasize fairly common attacks. You will deal with the basis of the problem: the application itself. In this hands-on tutorial, each section teaches you specific Ethical Hacking techniques with practical examples. You will learn how to detect SQL injection and cross-site scripting attacks and ways to mitigate them easily. We will also explore various ways to avoid cyber attacks and ensure data security.

By the end of the course, you will understand major web application attacks and how to mitigate them via secure practices.
