Offline Application Security Testing Essential Training

- [Jerod] When testing web applications for potential security vulnerabilities, those tests fall into one of two overarching categories, offline tests and online tests. With offline testing, you won't be interacting directly with the deployed instance of your in scope application. The key benefit is that this form of testing is generally considered safer to the application. The trade off is that the results are more likely to be limited than those you would generate from online testing. Both types of testing have value, and you should make every effort to perform both offline and online testing of the business critical apps in your environment. Hello, I'm Jerod Brennen. I've been working in information security long enough to have earned every gray hair in my beard, and I want to share what I've learned over the years to help you begin applying that same knowledge today. Are you ready to learn how to conduct offline application security testing? Good, let's get started.
