Web App Vulnerability Analyst

Web App Vulnerability Analyst. 

Web application security is an essential skill for any software development. OWASP Top 10 is a standard awareness document for developers and web application security. It represents a broad consensus that is used to raise awareness to developers, designers, architects, managers, and organizations about the consequences of OWASP Top 10 most common and most important web application security weaknesses. Organizations that address these flaws greatly reduce the risk of web applications being compromised, and in this Skillsoft Aspire journey we will help learners understand the risks associated with the OWASP Top 10. We will review each of the OWASP Top 10 items and discuss how to discover and exploit web app vulnerabilities. Having OWASP Top 10 awareness across all parts of the organization will go a long way in building secure applications across the entire organization.
We will first provide an overview of Web Application Security and why it is important today to understand vulnerabilities. We will then review each of the OWASP Top items. We will then conclude this track by reviewing how to discover and exploit web app vulnerabilities.

Learning Kits are structured learning paths, mainly within the Emerging Tech area. A Learning Kit keeps the student working toward an overall goal, helping them to achieve your career aspirations. Each part takes the student step by step through a diverse set of topic areas. Learning Kits are made up of required tracks, which contain all of the learning resources available such as Assessments (Final Exams), Mentor, Practice Labs and of course E learning. And all resources with a 365 days access from first activation.

This Learning Kit, with more than 12 hours of online content, is divided into the following tracks:
