Hackers routinely exploit web applications, especially as more services move to the cloud, despite the fact companies can easily fix most vulnerabilities within web applications before releasing their code to the wild. The “Web Application Exploitation” course teaches students about the most common web vulnerabilities (OWASP Top 10) in modern web applications, why they often exist, and several methods to test for their existence.
