Web Application Penetration Testing: SQL Injection Attacks
in Cyber Security And Ethical HackingAbout this course
The Web Application Penetration Testing: SQL Injection Attacks course, available on INE, provides a deep dive into one of the most common and critical web application vulnerabilities—SQL Injection. SQL Injection is a method used by attackers to manipulate or extract data from a database by exploiting vulnerable web applications. As the threat landscape evolves, learning how to identify and mitigate SQL Injection vulnerabilities has never been more crucial for cybersecurity professionals.
In this comprehensive course, you will gain practical, hands-on experience in identifying, exploiting, and preventing SQL Injection attacks. Through detailed demonstrations and real-world attack simulations, you’ll learn to recognize vulnerable applications and develop the skills needed to secure web applications from SQL Injection exploits.
What Will You Learn?
- SQL Injection Basics: Understand the principles behind SQL Injection attacks, how they occur, and the impact they can have on web applications and databases.
- SQL Injection Attack Vectors: Learn about the various methods attackers use to inject malicious SQL queries, including error-based, union-based, and blind SQL Injection.
- Exploitation Techniques: Master the process of exploiting vulnerable web applications to extract sensitive data, execute administrative operations, or bypass authentication.
- Bypassing Filters and WAFs: Discover techniques to bypass input validation filters and Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) that are designed to prevent SQL Injection attacks.
- SQL Injection in Web Applications: Gain hands-on experience in testing web applications for SQL Injection vulnerabilities using tools like Burp Suite, SQLmap, and manual techniques.
- Defense Strategies and Mitigation: Learn the best practices for preventing SQL Injection, including input validation, prepared statements, and parameterized queries.
- Security Testing Frameworks: Understand how to use different penetration testing frameworks and methodologies to test web applications for SQL Injection vulnerabilities.
- Post-Exploitation Techniques: Explore techniques for maintaining access and further exploiting systems once SQL Injection vulnerabilities have been discovered.
Course Highlights:
- Hands-On Training: Work on practical exercises and real-world scenarios to test and exploit SQL Injection vulnerabilities in a controlled environment.
- Expert-Led Demonstrations: Learn from cybersecurity experts with detailed step-by-step demonstrations and in-depth explanations of SQL Injection techniques and mitigations.
