Cross Site Scripting: Attack & Defense

The course is specifically designed to understand Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability with a complete Practical Hands-On Experience.

Overview

Description
The course is specifically designed to understand Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability with a complete Practical Hands-On Experience. This course will train the students to setup their own local penetration testing environment to practice in a safe and contained environment. The students will learn what Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability really is, and how different types of XSS works? Then they will follow an Attacking Approach to deeply understand how XSS attacks happen in real life. They will learn to use different vulnerability scanners to find XSS vulnerabilities. They will also learn to prevent and restrict XSS attacks by using methods like - Escaping User Input, Content Security Policy, etc, thus following a Defensive Approach, hence then name of the course: “Cross Site Scripting: Attack & Defense”, and last but not the least, they will learn to use different cheat sheets to evade WAFs and Firewalls, and also to prevent XSS attacks by implementing secure coding practices and proper handling of untrusted data.
