Hacking APIs for Fun & Profit

In this beginner friendly hands-on workshop, we will explore the OWASP API Security Top 10 and learn how to find and fix these API vulnerabilities in your own applications. Participants will learn to use common tooling for API bug hunting - Burp Suite and Postman - in tandem to capture and modify requests to explore and test web applications.

This workshop is tailored towards developers and junior application security professionals alike.
