Do you feel unsure about web application security? Are you not an expert but still responsible for application security? This session will arm the participant with a guide to test web applications for common security threats that can be tested without a deep knowledge of “hacker” type tools. A usable takeaway checklist with test scripts that the non-hacker can use to give applications a good security review is provided.   “Hacker-esque” tools to do some additional security testing are identified and demonstrated. Join Glenn and become an ‘ethical’ hacker of your own web applications.

Learning Objectives:

• Security testing procedures for websites that do not require deep security knowledge or tools
• Understand the difference between manual security testing and security-expert penetration testing
• Employ “easy to use” security testing tools to assess web applications
