The Web Application Security course discusses the most common security risks in web applications and how they can be tackled. At a time when attacks on applications seem to be on the rise, it is vital for developers to be aware of the types of threats and how the applications can be armed against them.
The course starts with a discussion of the most common security issues as identified in the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP). This includes the risks of vulnerabilities in libraries, the importance of minimizing the attack surface of an application and vulnerabilities in authentication control.
In Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks, malicious scripts are injected into a web site. Typically, this happens because the attacker makes JavaScript code run in the browser. XSS attacks are common and can occur anywhere in the application where user input is not validated.
Attention is also paid to SQL Injection, where an attacker places malicious code in SQL statements. SQL Injection is usually due to unchecked user input being used to create SQL statements. The consequences of SQL Injection can be serious such as data corruption, data theft or data destruction.
Next up in the course is the discussion of CSRF. Attention is paid to how CSRF executes malicious commands on behalf of a user trusted by the web application. Specially designed image tags or hidden forms are often used for this.
And Session Hijacking is on the program of the course as well. With Session Hijacking the attacker manages to obtain a session ID via sniffing techniques or XSS and then maliciously exploit it.
Finally the course Web Application Security discusses securing web applications by means of SSL or TLS. An encrypted communication channel then ensures that data can be transported securely and digital certificates provide authentication.
The course Web Application Security is intended for web developers who want to learn how to protect web applications against the many security risks.
Experience in developing web applications is required to participate in this course. Experience with PHP or JavaScript is beneficial for understanding but not required.
The course Web Application Security has a hands-on character. The theory is treated on the basis of presentation slides and is interchanged with practical exercises. The course material is in English. Course times are from 9.30 up and to 16.30.
After successful completion of the training the participants receive an official certificate Web Application Security.
