EC-Council’s Web Application Hacking and Security is a specialization certification that enables you to play, learn, hack, test, and secure web applications from existing and emerging security threats in the industry verticals.

Web Application Hacking and Security has challenges derived from the engaging iLab environments of EC Council – from Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) to the Certified Penetration Testing Professional (CIPENT); from Certified Application Security Engineer (CASE) .Net to Java. But Web Application Hacking and Security goes beyond this to more difficult scenarios as you advance through each problem.

Web Application Hacking and Security is like a Capture-The-Flag (CTF) competitions meant to test your hacking skills. But you can keep on trying until you achieve the goal. Test your skills and work alone to solve complex problems or follow the instructor as they do a walkthrough to help you learn Web Application Hacking and Security.

Watch your name rise on the leader board, a place where you’ll see who’scracking the most challenges, who’s making the most progress, who’s cranking out the h@ck$!

Course Outline

Complete Walkthrough Instruction & Challenge Based Environment

Unlike many Capture-the-Flag challenges and Vulnerable Virtual Machines, Web Application Hacking and Security provides the challenger with the ability to follow an instructor as they make their way through the challenges. The instructor will present alternatives, do scans, upload malicious payloads, and crack passwords from their home computer just like you. – But don’t rely on the walkthrough; challenge yourself and see how far you can get. Play some of the walkthroughs, then pause and try some more. In the process, you will learn about application vulnerabilities and web application hacking. Even though this will prove useful for other CTF contests, and in cracking VVMs, it will be even more useful to your career as you learn to defend your applications and progress to Web Application Hacking and Security.
