This course is intended for people interested in information security—particularly in the penetration testing of various websites—to identify the security flaws present in the majority of newly developed websites and how to fix them. 

You will learn web penetration testing techniques using the Kali Linux operating system. You will be introduced to Python programming, web server technology, network management, open source intelligence, cross-site scripting, SQL injection, authentication and authorization in systems, cross-site request forgery, social engineering attacks, and concepts in information security management. 

Your knowledge of the various web application vulnerabilities and attack methods will be enhanced after taking this course. You will get hands-on experience with many tools used in online penetration testing in cyber security.

Web Application Penetration Testing

## Introduction to cookies

The HTTP protocol is stateless and does not store information about different users on a website. This led to the development of cookies.

**Cookies** are documents that contain information, largely preferences, about the user browsing a website. For instance, when we're viewing a website that's in a foreign language and we change it to a language we understand, that information is saved to a cookie in the local machine. So the next time we visit the same website, it'll read the cookie that it had saved earlier, and we'll see that the language being used is the same as the one we'd previously selected. If you've ever faced a prompt like the one shown below, then you've interacted with cookies and are probably familiar with the type of information they're allowed to store:
