Learn Website Hacking Penetration Testing From Scratch

Learn how to hack websites and web applications and learn how to secure them from these hackers.

If you are interested in learning website & web application hacking / penetration testing, want to learn how to secure websites & web applications from hacker this comprehensive course on Website & Web applications Hacking.

Focus of this course is on the practical side of penetration testing without neglecting the theory behind each attack. Before jumping into penetration testing, you will first learn:

• How to set up a lab and install needed software to practice penetration testing on your own machine.
• What is a website,
• How does it work,
• What does it rely on,
• What do mean by a web server, a database, and
• How all of these components work together to give us functioning websites,

From a beginner to a more advanced level — by the time you finish, you’ll be able to fix vulnerabilities and secure websites from hackers. Following are the III Sections of this course

1. Information Gathering –

• How to gather information about your target website
• How to discover the DNS server used, the services, subdomains, un-published directories, sensitive files, user emails, websites on the same server and even the web hosting provider. This information is crucial as it increases the chances of being able to successfully gain access to the target website.

2. Discovering, Exploiting & Fixing –

• Discover, exploit and fix a large number of vulnerabilities
• Bypass security measurements
• File upload
• Code Execution
• Local File inclusion
• Remote File inclusion
• SQL Injection
• XSS
• Insecure Session Management
• Brute Force & Dictionary Attacks

3. Post Exploitation –

• Learn what can you do with the access you gained from exploiting the above vulnerabilities,
• How to convert reverse shell access to a Weevely access and vice versa, you will also learn
• How to run system commands on the target server, navigate between directories, access other websites on the same server, upload/download files, access the database and even download the whole database to your local machine and
• How to bypass security and do all of that even if you did not have permissions to do that!

All the attacks in this course are practical attacks that work against any real websites, in each vulnerability you will learn the basic exploitation, then you will learn advanced methods that will give you more privileges or allow you to bypass security measurements — You will learn how and why these vulnerabilities are exploitable, how to fix them and what are the right practices to avoidcasing them.

NOTE: This course is created for educational purposes only and all the attacks are launched in my own lab or against devices that I have permission to test.
