Secure Web Development and Hacking for Developers

A vulnerable application could result in major reputational and financial losses, and it is often the entry point that hackers use to compromise entire organizations. As a developer, it is critical to understand how web apps are attacked, and how we can defend our environment.

This hands-on training is developed and presented by Alexander Andersson and Fabio Viggiani, leading web application security experts. They will bring their experience from the field to prepare you with the right mindset to attack web applications; knowing the opponent’s strategies wins half the battle.

The training targets developers and it will cover everything from the initial recon phase to identification and exploitation of vulnerabilities. There will be secure coding, hacking, patching, exercises, demos, and challenges.

The examples and exercises are based on different languages – primarily .NET, Java, and Node.js – but the principles apply to all languages and platforms.
