Book Description
From the Back Cover
A practical, beginner-friendly introduction to web app pentesting
In A Beginner’s Guide to Web Application Penetration Testing, cybersecurity trainer and veteran Ali Abdollahi delivers an incisive and timely discussion of penetration testing that addresses the increasing importance of web application security. The author takes a dual approach, incorporating both theory and practical skills, equipping readers with the knowledge they need to kickstart their journey into the web application penetration testing field.
The book walks you through the five main stages of a comprehensive penetration test: scoping and recon, scanning, gaining and maintaining access, analysis, and reporting. You’ll learn how to use popular and effective security tools, as well as how to combat the ten most common security vulnerability categories publicized by the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP).
From hands-on demonstrations of techniques – like subdomain enumeration with Sublist3r and Subfinder – to practice with input validation and external entity disabling for security maintenance, the book gives you a first-person view of pentesting you can implement immediately.
Perfect for software engineers with an interest in penetration testing, security analysts, web developers, and other information technology professionals, A Beginner’s Guide to Web Application Penetration Testing is also an essential read for students of cybersecurity, software engineering, computer science, and related tech industries.
