About this class
What you'll learn
The methodology the rest of the curriculum assumes. You will set up an intercepting proxy, learn to read and replay HTTP, systematically enumerate an application's attack surface, and write findings up so a developer can fix them.
Prerequisites
Comfort with a browser's developer tools and basic HTTP — methods, status codes, headers, cookies.
Where to practise
Every technique here is exercised in the practice labs and applied in the topic classes that follow.
