Hands-on API Security Workshop with OWASP JuiceShop

Step into the world of API Security in an immersive two-hour hands-on training event offered by Akto and in collaboration by OWASP LA!

We’re excited to announce this opportunity for appsec teams to enhance their skills in API Security and writing business logic tests. This instructor led hands-on workshop focuses on creating and running business logic tests using Akto. You will learn to write ten different business logic tests, which will then be executed against Juice Shop and other vulnerable apps. The goal of the workshop is to give hands-on experience in writing and automating custom API security tests related to authentication, authorization and access control issues. The workshop aims to be interactive, engaging, and an enriching learning experience. You will learn the fundamentals of writing, automating, and executing business logic tests. By the end of this training, participants will be able to automate 10 business logic tests, a key skill in the realm of API security.

What to Expect?

• By the end of the workshop participants will be able to write 10 business logic tests focused on authentication, authorization and access control issues.
• Networking opportunity with fellow security professionals.
• Ask absolutely any questions about securing APIs

Requirements:

• Attendees are required to bring their laptops

Participants are encouraged to bring their own API projects or sample APIs they are trying to test to receive personalized guidance and recommendations during the workshop. We will help everyone write their own custom tests during the workshop itself so you can test your own APIs. If not, we will be using Juice Shop or other vulnerable apps for demo purposes.

Food and drinks will be provided and there's a free 90 minute parking available across the street.
