Ethical Hacking™: Learn to hack Websites and Applications

Do you want to learn how to hack websites and web application in the most fun way?

If yes, then this course is for you.

In this course, you will start as a beginner with no previous experience and knowledge about website or web app hacking. You will learn different hacking methodologies, tools and techniques. This course gives you ideas on website hacking through theoretical knowledge and practical implementation. This course is focused on the practical side of penetration testing without neglecting the theory behind each attack. Rather than using virtual machines and Kali Linux tools, We will be using the "hackthissite" website to hone our website hacking skills.

There are several websites on the internet which allow learners to hack through cool and realistic challenges. These websites are free of cost to use and help us understand how web hacking works at the core level. By completing all these challenges and missions, you will be able to start your career as web pen-tester. You can then use some tools and techniques using Kali Linux to uplift your knowledge. But, if you are a complete beginner then, this course will be perfect to start with.

Most of the courses you will find at Udemy will teach you hacking through installing Linux on your machines using virtual machines. This way of learning web hacking can be troublesome for some of us because our machine may not be high end enough to support these tools smoothly.

In order to make anyone start with ethical hacking and web hacking, I have brought this course to you which can be compatible with any machine (Linux, Windows, MacOS x) because we will be learning to hack through completing missions and challenges given by “hackthissite” website.

In this course, we will cover basic to advanced concepts of web and application hacking in a fun and exciting way which will feel like you are playing some sort of the games where you complete the missions and you get rewarded. The “Hack This Site” website we will be using throughout this course is a popular platform among hackers to learn and play hacking games similar to Capture The Flag (CTF).

1. PHP code vulnerability

I will be using Chrome as a web browser throughout this course.

Lastly, This course does not teach you only these aforementioned attacks/missions, we will be updating new content like Javascript missions, programming missions and other remaining missions.
