Bug hunting challenge

The workshop includes hacking into intentionally vulnerable websites. Guided by cheat sheets and on-site "ninjas", you will become immersed in a “Bug Hunting" challenge where you can quickly learn and apply hacking techniques in a sandboxed environment - and all the while, acquire the skills needed to keep data safe. The sites contain more than 150 vulnerabilities, including the OWASP Top 10.

As a participant, you will simulate attacks like:

  • Bypassing authentication features
  • Recover passwords from hash values
  • Tampering with input fields and cookies
  • Session hijacking

TESTIMONIALS

The CodeBreakers workshop was very well planned and was one of the best hackathons I have attended in Dubai! There was a lot of security­ based content which is crucial at this point in time. I am definitely looking forward to more workshops in the future.

The CodeBreakers workshop was a great hands-on training! The instructor conducting the workshop was very good and everyone was given individual attention. The ethical hacking part of the workshop was engaging and gave us a solid understanding of hacking practices along with solutions on how to better secure enterprises.
