Interesting but sometimes boring in the way that the information is explained. I think this is not for dummies.
By Anonymized User on 2/16/2025
This course includes clear explanations and also provides practical demos to aid understanding.

Eye opener course educating about all hidden and mischievous ways to hack into a web application
By Naresh Kumar Agarwala on 6/29/2024
Very good explanation of attack and excellent lab demonstration. But, attack mitigation/prevent part is missing. If attack mitigation/preventive part would be explained in detailed way, it would be considered as a complete course and comprehensive web application security. We could apply check and balances in real world problem quickly and test it. Thanks for your effort. Keep it up.

Simple and very clear to introduce OWASP top 10 and related vulnerabilties
By Vasyl Chukarin on 6/22/2023
Good material and good explanations, though requires little bit more initial knowledge than I expected. Some technical explanations hard to follow since some things are presented as something obvious (however for some people those are not). On the other hand, I appreciate the approach used to explain. I'd like author not to skip some topics that are "self-explanatory", at least to explain that, for example, you not only need to log stuff, but what can happen if you don't, how the log could be compromised etc.

It will be great if we have demo right here instead of different websites. I was not fan of using those websites due to security issues.
By Roicel Laya on 10/6/2022
The course is good to start understanding the top vulnerabilities and see how to exploit them with practical exercises. One thing I think can be improved is the instalation of tools in section3. Maybe doing a video explaining how to install and configure them. But a good course in general.
By Kamil Twarogal on 1/27/2022
Overall good, a bit too slow speech (had to watch at x1.75 to be comfortable), sometimes a bit more explanation would be good. But the whole OWASP concept is nicely introduced and good examples of way to break vulnerabilities are shown
By Prajjwal Gupta on 6/4/2021
For me explanation of CSRF was not very clear even after watching same lecture multiple times. I think a flow diagram would be great.
