Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

A hands-on course designed to equip learners with the skills needed to perform dynamic application security testing (DAST) using open-source tools. The course provides a solid foundation in application security, emphasizing the importance of DAST in modern DevSecOps workflows. Through practical demonstrations and real-world applications, learners will gain insights into detecting vulnerabilities in web applications, integrating security testing into development pipelines, and leveraging open-source solutions to enhance security posture. 

This course begins with an introduction to application security testing, covering DAST’s role and its comparison with SAST and SCA. Learners will then explore Wapiti, starting with its installation and setup before advancing to attack module configurations, vulnerability scans, and CI/CD integration. Additionally, the course introduces Dastardly from Burp Suite and explores ThreatMapper for securing cloud-native environments, including installation and CI/CD integration. Finally, learners will delve into reporting, security certification, and best practices for integrating DAST into DevSecOps. 

By the end of this course, you will be proficient in using open-source DAST tools to identify vulnerabilities, automate security testing, and integrate security into CI/CD pipelines for robust application security.
