Description

Course Description:

The Web Application Security with OWASP ZAP Certified Course is designed to equip learners with the essential knowledge and practical skills to identify, analyze, and mitigate web application vulnerabilities. This course focuses on using OWASP Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) — one of the most powerful open-source tools for web security testing. You will gain hands-on experience in detecting common web security flaws such as SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), CSRF, authentication issues, and insecure configurations. Through real-world labs and guided projects, you’ll learn to perform penetration testing, interpret vulnerability reports, and apply security best practices to safeguard modern web applications.
