Description

Hacking APIs: A Crash Course in Web API Security Testing

This comprehensive guide covers web API security testing, preparing you to penetrate-test APIs, reap high rewards on bug bounty programs, and make your own APIs more secure. You'll learn how REST and GraphQL APIs work in real-world scenarios and set up a streamlined API testing lab with Burp Suite and Postman.

Through nine guided labs targeting intentionally vulnerable APIs, you'll practice techniques such as fuzzing, JSON Web Token attacks, and NoSQL injection to uncover high-payout API bugs. By the end of the book, you'll be equipped to improve the security of applications on the web.
