Why It's Worth Your Time

Web applications form the foundation of almost every digital service today, making them primary targets for penetration testing. Web penetration testing goes beyond simply finding vulnerabilities—it requires identifying security weaknesses from an attacker's perspective and assessing their impact. This Path starts with building simple web services using HTML and Flask, then moves into hands-on exercises with real attack scenarios like XSS, SQLi, and SSRF, gradually covering advanced bypass and injection techniques. It is recommended for those who want to develop strong, practical web security assessment skills. This Job Role Path will be updated with additional Units as needed.
