This course involves the use of artificial intelligence tools.

Learn practical web application penetration testing from scratch — no prior hacking experience required.

This course skips the theory dumps and puts you straight into a real Kali Linux lab. You'll build your own testing environment with VMware, Metasploitable and DVWA, then work through the exact reconnaissance and exploitation workflow professional penetration testers and bug bounty hunters use every day.

Most beginner courses spend twenty minutes on reconnaissance. This one spends an entire section on it — because in real engagements and bug bounty programs, recon is where findings actually come from. You'll learn OSINT, technology stack fingerprinting, historical link discovery, security header analysis, ASN and IP range enumeration, acquisition mapping, and how to find origin IP addresses hiding behind Cloudflare.

WHAT YOU'LL DO IN THIS COURSE

• Build a complete pentesting lab (VMware, Kali Linux, Metasploitable, DVWA)

• Run full reconnaissance: OSINT, tech stack, hidden directories, monitoring

• Enumerate subdomains with Gobuster, FFUF, Amass and certificate transparency

• Perform DNS enumeration and DNS bruteforcing

• Run automated vulnerability scans with WMAP and OWASP ZAP

• Brute force login forms with Burp Suite and Hydra

• Exploit command injection on both Linux and Windows targets

• Understand and exploit CSRF, file inclusion (LFI/RFI) and file upload flaws

• Perform SQL injection at low, medium and high security levels

• Attack WordPress with WPScan and exploit CMS Made Simple

• Chain multiple vulnerabilities together for full compromise

• Test your skills on real TryHackMe rooms after each major topic

Every technique is demonstrated live against legal, intentionally vulnerable targets you set up yourself. No hand-waving, no skipped steps.

By the end you'll have a working methodology you can apply to bug bounty programs, CTFs, or your first junior penetration testing role.

LEGAL & ETHICAL NOTICE

Every technique in this course is taught for ethical hacking and authorized penetration testing only. Use these tools exclusively on networks you own or have explicit written permission to test. Unauthorized wireless attacks are illegal in most countries and carry serious criminal penalties.
