Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

Understanding and mitigating API vulnerabilities is crucial in today’s interconnected digital landscape. The OWASP API Top 10 serves as a critical framework for identifying and addressing the most prevalent and impactful security risks facing APIs in 2023. By focusing on these top vulnerabilities, organizations can prioritize their security efforts to protect sensitive data and maintain the integrity of their services. Additionally, crAPI (Completely Ridiculous API) plays a vital role in this course by providing a hands-on, practical environment where learners can safely explore and exploit these vulnerabilities. This combination of the OWASP Top 10 and crAPI ensures that participants gain both the theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary to secure APIs effectively. 

This course is meticulously structured into six comprehensive sections, each designed to build upon the previous one. Participants will start with foundational concepts, gaining a clear understanding of what APIs are and the common security threats they face. As the course progresses, learners will delve into specific OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, such as Broken Object Level Authorization, Broken Authentication, and Server-Side Request Forgery, among others. Each section not only explains the theory behind these vulnerabilities but also demonstrates real-world exploitation techniques using crAPI. Furthermore, the course provides actionable strategies and best practices for mitigating these risks, ensuring that participants can apply their knowledge to secure APIs in real-world scenarios. 

By the end of this course, participants will be proficient in identifying, exploiting, and preventing a wide range of API security vulnerabilities. They will possess a deep understanding of the OWASP API Top 10 and how to leverage tools like crAPI to enhance their practical skills. Whether you are a cybersecurity professional, an API developer, or someone looking to bolster your API security expertise, this course offers invaluable insights and hands-on experience to help you safeguard APIs against evolving security threats. Empower yourself with the knowledge and skills to protect your organization’s APIs and ensure the security and reliability of your digital services.
