Professionally Evil API Testing

This workshop-style intermediate course is designed to complement a student’s understanding of traditional Web Application Security. It focuses on modern application and API security features and tactics to protect APIs and microservices from attacks. Because the material in this course leans on standard HTTP and browser features, and standard web and API security best practices, the lessons and labs are applicable across programming languages and platform implementations. This material in this course is approached both from the perspective of an adversary and that of a defender.
