Online Application Security Testing Essential Training

- [Jerod Brennen] When testing web applications for potential security vulnerabilities, those tests fall into one of two overarching categories. Offline tests and online tests. With online testing, you'll be interacting directly with deployed instances of your in scope application. Online testing is generally considered riskier as testing activities may have an unplanned impact on the applications being tested. The trade off is that the results are likely to be much more accurate than those you would generate from offline 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.
